Dear Meep users,
I recently started using Meep, and have some doubts regarding using
the parameter k-point.
I want to obtain the dispersion curve of a infinitely-long
cylindrical metallic nanowire using Meep. In Meep tutorial, I read that
the method of obtaining a band diagram is by specifying the wave
vectors k, and then running harminv to obtain the frequencies
corresponding to them. From Meep reference, I got the idea that k-point
should be set to 'false' for non-periodic structures, and 'vector3' for
periodic structures. In my case, as the infinitely long nanowire is not
a periodic structure, should I use k-point as false (which is the
default)? If yes, since I cannot specify any values for k-points, how
can I proceed to obtain the dispersion data?
Thanks!
Kan
