Dear Steven Johnson and MEEP users,

The first email did not distribute so I am sending this again...

I encounter a convergence problem at the interface of PEC and anisotropic 
media. I defined a 2D simulation with PEC triangle on PEC substrate in an 
anisotropic medium. When I apply the following code, it ends up with exploded 
values at the interface of PEC and anisotropic medium. I have tried to set 
'eps-averaging' to false and decreased the courant factor, but it is still not 
working.

Please let me know if you have any idea on this problem. Thanks!!

====Code
(set! eps-averaging? false)
(set! Courant 0.01)

(set! geometry-lattice (make lattice (size 10 10 no-size)))

(set! geometry (list
         (make block (center -2.5 0) (size 5 10 infinity)
                   (material (make dielectric (epsilon-diag 3 4 1) 
(epsilon-offdiag 0.5 0 0))))
         (make block (center 2.5 0) (size 5 10 infinity)
                   (material perfect-electric-conductor))
         (make cone (center -1 0) (radius 3) (height 2) (axis -1 0 0)
                   (material perfect-electric-conductor))
))

(set! sources (list
    (make source
        (src (make continuous-src (frequency 1)))
        (component Hz)
        (center -3 0)
                   (size 0 8)
         )
))

(set! resolution 48)
(set! pml-layers (list (make pml (thickness 1.0))))

(run-until 10
    (at-beginning output-epsilon)
         (to-appended "hz" (after-time 0 (at-every 1 output-hfield-z)))
)

Best Wishes,

Hanhong Gao
