hello all i would like to simulate a 3d SWG segmented waveguide, with a period of 300nm and dutycycle of 50%. How can i (and... is it possible to) obtain the effective index, the group effective index and dispersion curves? thanks ___ mpb-discuss

Hi, As far as I know MPB will solve the dispersion curves and the group velocities when given a propagation direction (k-point) and a structure, assuming the latter is periodical. So, you'll may end up simulating a lattice of several segmented waveguides but if they are separated enough there
