Hello folks,

I have a question about free space propagation of a Gaussian in MEEP. My source has frequency 5 GHz <= f <= 16 GHz and I'm using the Ex component. I place the source at the top, place a flux plane right beside it and another flux plane down at the bottom of the cell. I then compute the flux by dividing the bottom flux by the top. I thought I would get a transmission spectrum approximately equal to 1, but the spectrum looks like an M, with the central part close to 1, but the highest and lowest frequencies dipping to 0.4.

Any idea why this is the case? Extending the length of the computational cell to a couple of wavelengths doesn't fix it.

The code is here:

Thanks.

Ashifi.
