Dear All, I am simulating a microstrip line in MEEP. I am not using PML but rather using metallic boundaries which are placed sufficiently far away to avoid reflections.
I am attempting to excite the quasiTEM mode by putting an electric field between the ground and microstrip line. When I run a gaussian source on a wideband excitation, and subsequently run harminv while running an appropriate k-point value, I am not finding the microstrip line quasi TEM in my list of mode frequencies. I just see rectangular waveguide mode frequencies being excited (due to the metallic boundary walls). Does any one have any suggestions on what I should be doing to see the TEM mode in my list of frequencies. Thank you. Thanks, Amil _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
