In this paper, a new symmetric energy-conserved splitting FDTD scheme (symmetric EC-S-FDTD) for Maxwell's equations is proposed. The new algorithm inherits the same properties of our previous EC-S-FDTDI and EC-S-FDTDII algorithms: energy-conservation, unconditional stability and computational efficiency. It keeps the same computational complexity as the EC-S-FDTDI scheme and is of second-order accuracy in both time and space as the EC-S-FDTDII scheme. The convergence and error estimate of the symmetric EC-S-FDTD scheme are proved rigorously by the energy method and are confirmed by numerical experiments.
