Hi Patti, Sure. I think there's at least two ways to create polygons. One is, like you said, we could repeatedly use block, made of dielectrics or air, to create polygon. In this case, you may want to specify the e1,e2,e3 properties of block. http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Meep_Reference#geometric-object
Another way is, we could directly use the material-function to define an object of any shape we wish. http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Meep_Reference#material-type Hope it helps a little.
