摘要: A new approach is developed to solve the Green's function that satisfies the Hehmholtz equation with complex refractive index. Especially, the Green's function for the Helmholtz equation can be expressed in terms of a one-dimensional integral, which can convert a Helmholtz equation into a Schr?dinger equation with complex potential. And the Schr?dinger equation can be solved by Feynman path integral. The result is in excellent agreement with the previous work.
