Dear meep user, I am beginner in phc and meep. I am trying to simulate a slab phc within a waveguide and a coupled cavity. I have already obtained the transmission spectrum and the resonant modes / Q_values.
I would like to know what amount of energy that is introduced in my input waveguide is transmitted into my cavity. I am thinking about putting a source inside the cavity, and calculate the energy fields inside the waveguide and the cavity with (flux-in-box dir box), is that right ? Or simply I put a source into the waveguide and look the transmittance in 2 interesting points (just before the cavity and inside the cavity). However, in this way, how can I can remove the field due to the cavity reflection ? A last question, I am a little bit confused with the use of PM layer. I hesitate between three possibilities described in below. I think the first is right, isn't it ? __________________ | ---------------- <--- PML | ____________ | |0 0 0 0 0 | |--|0 0 0 0 0 |-- |--|0 0 0 0 0 |-- | |0 0 0 0 0 | __________________ _________ | |0 0 0 0 0 | PML |--|0 0 0 0 0 |---------------- | |0 0 0 0 0 | | |0 0 0 0 0 | ________________ | | ____PML_____ | |0 0 0 0 0 | |--|0 0 0 0 0 |-- |--|0 0 0 0 0 |-- | |0 0 0 0 0 | Regards, Cedric Perrotton Master student, Optic-Laser, University Louis Pasteur Engineering Student, Ecole Nationale Superieure de Physique de Strasbourg _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
