Abstract
A three-dimensional time-domain method in solving Maxwell's equations is developed by using non-cubic cells. The advantage of this formulati on is that it is free from a volume integration since updating equatio ns are directly obtained from Faraday and Ampere's laws. The faces of tetrahedral elements and the polygons of their Voronoi diagram are cho sen as integral surfaces for Faraday and Ampere's laws, respectively.
