Dear Steven and Meep users

 I have two questions about Bloch bounday condition

1. Lets assume that the entire region is filled with a dielectric material
with eps 2. If I want to apply Bloch boundary condition should I use
f.use_bloch(K)) or f.use_bloch(K.sqrt(2)). In first one it is assumed that
meep will take care of materials in boundaries

2. As far as I know, in Bloch theorem phase changes by K.r; so why Steven
used 2*pi*K.r in his sample code when he wanted to introduce a new source:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00076.html
f.add_point_source(Ez, src, vec(xsrc2 = xsrc1, ysrc2 = ysrc1),
        polar(1.0, 2*pi*(kx * xsrc1 + ky * ysrc1)));

I will appreciate responses.
Joe
