Description Long-time quantum lattice algorithm (QLA) simulations are performed for the multiple reflection-transmission of an initial electromagnetic pulse propagating normally to a boundary layer region joining two media of different refractive index. For these one-dimensional (1D) simulations, there is excellent agreement between x-, y- and z-representations, as well as very good agreement with nearly all the standard plane wave boundary condition results for reflection and transmission off a dielectric discontinuity. In the QLA simulation, no boundary conditions are imposed at the continuous, but sharply increasing, dielectric boundary layers. Two-dimensional (2D) QLA scattering simulations in the x–z plane are performed for an electromagnetic pulse interacting with a conical dielectric obstacle for the 8–16 qubit model.
