Hi lhu, When the fields are initialized, meep prints a message: ----------- Initializing structure... Working in 2D dimensions. time for set_epsilon = 0.011 s -----------
In your case this happens when (add-flux ...) invokes (init-fields). You can also check by typing fields or structures after executing a line of the script. m.

The script ignores the resolution and uses the default value 10. Now comes to a related question: at what point does meep start to generate the grid in a typical script , or where exactly should we set (set! resolution...)? ;(1) (set! geometry-lattice ...) ;(2) (set! geometry ...) ;(3) (set! sources ...) ;(4) (set! pml-layers ...) (set! k-point ...) etc. On 3/9/07, Lu Hu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I am sorry that I have to send this message again.

It looks like the results never converge to the analytical solutions no matter how fine the grids are. Could anybody point out the mistakes for me? The ctl file and plot are attached. lhu _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
