Hi Marko,
I have also noticed that the 3D simulation is unable to converge if
symmetry planes are used. I do not why and would be happy to learn.
Bloch boundary conditions work fine for me. Hopefully you can use them
as well.

Hi,
I'm using a Cartesian coordinate system and have a symmetric structure
in 3 dimensions: planes of symmetry are XZ and YZ and it is also
symmetric under rotation for 90 degrees about Z axis. Sources are
specified as XY plane.
I wonder why the simulation does not converge when polarization of
source is in Ex and two symmetry planes are specified, one with phase
1 (normal direction is Y) and another with phase -1 (normal direction
is X).
I also wonder how it would be possible to use rotate4-sym (fourfould
symmetry), what should be the polarization of the source and the phase
factor for symmetry.
Thanks
