Unfortunately, this is not the case. My goal is specifically to describe a material in which the electrical conductivity and permittivity vary continuously with position. Due to Meep's architecture, it is not possible to generate a new polarizability at each location. Instead, we are intended to use the sigma function to generate a single polarizability object whose behavior depends on position. If sigma is not meant to be passed as a function, then sigma and delta-epsilon are entirely redundant. Is this a bug, either in documentation or in implementation? - --Ben -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHD6XLUJT6e6HFtqQRAiqZAJ9xR6c4ErEgb2GCg2Qx8hviBoL6fgCdE+RY L62eVwEMfz/N+RoySy98yvk= =o7sn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
