A new hybrid finite element/rigorous coupled wave analysis formulation is presented for the modeling of electromagnetic wave interactions with dielectric structures which are doubly periodic. The structures under investigation are periodic in two dimensions and have a finite extent in the third dimension. The proposed model can handle dielectric structures which have material properties varying arbitrarily in any of the dimensions. Employment of Fourier series expansion and Floquet's theory in one of the periodic dimensions helps to reduce the dimensions of the mesh grids. Therefore, two-dimensional grids are used rather than three-dimensional meshes of the structures of interest. The periodicity in the other periodic dimension is enforced by the use of phase boundary conditions. Domain truncation in the non-periodic dimension is done by placing Perfectly Matched Layers. Results obtained using alternative methods are used to verify the proposed method's validity.
