We present an efficient and accurate grid method to study the strong field dynamics of planar H(2)(+) under Born-Oppenheimer approximation. After introducing the elliptical coordinates to the planar H(2)(+), we show that the Coulomb singularities at the nuclei can be successfully overcome so that both bound and continuum states can be accurately calculated by the method of separation of variables. The time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) can be accurately solved by a two-dimensional discrete variable representation (DVR) method, where the radial coordinate is discretized with the finite-element discrete variable representation for easy parallel computation and the angular coordinate with the trigonometric DVR which can describe the periodicity in this direction. The bound states energies can be accurately calculated by the imaginary time propagation of TDSE, which agree very well with those computed by the separation of variables. We apply the TDSE to study the ionization dynamics of the planar H(2)(+) by short extreme ultra-violet (xuv) pulses, in which case the differential momentum distributions from both the length and the velocity gauge agree very well with those calculated by the lowest order perturbation theory.
