[[File:Yee cell.png|thumb|250px|In finite-difference time-___domain method, "Yee lattice" is used to discretize [[Maxwell's equations]] in space. This scheme involves the placement of [[Electric field|electric]] and [[magnetic fields]] on a staggered grid.]]
'''Finite-difference time-___domain''' ('''FDTD''') or '''Yee's method''' (named after the Chinese American applied mathematician [[Kane S. Yee]], born 1934) is a [[numerical analysis]] technique used for modeling [[computational electrodynamics]] (finding approximate solutions to the associated system of [[differential equation]]s). Since it is a [[time ___domain|time-___domain]] method, FDTD solutions can cover a wide [[frequency]] range with a single [[computer simulation|simulation]] run, and treat nonlinear material properties in a natural way.
