Hello, I send one question the 8th April and I have not got any reply. I would be very pleasured if somebody could help me one jsut give me some leads to go on.
Thank you very much once again, Mario Cao --- At first, I want to thank you all the help you are offering in the meep-discuss mailing-list. My problem is that I have the following structure with different dielectric materials with dispersion and I want to calculate the absorption (the loss) only in the Germanium(Ge) layer, but I am not sure how. Source is placed in the first Air-layer(1) and the simulation is run in 2D (propagation direction is x) ___________________________________ |* | | | | | *|* | | | | | *|* Air | Si | Ge | Si | Air | *|* | | | | | *|*______|______|______|______|______| * 1 2 3 4 5 I tried to calculate the loss coefficient with the help of flux areas (lines) just before the Ge-layer and just after the Ge-layer. But the results are not the expected, because the transmission coefficient is greater than 1. (not logical) I do not know how to deploy this measure, because in the example of the tutorial "Transmission spectrum around a waveguide bend" there is one first simulation without dielectric and another one with dielectric. In my case with many dielectric-layers, it is possible to calculate the loss with the flux areas? How should be the first simulation? And if not, how could I calculate the absorption or loss of this layers? Thank you in advance. Best regards, Mario Cao PS: Sorry if my english is not very clear.
