Hi, I have a question about calculating the mode volume of a photonic crystal cavity. Working with an L3 design I need to calculate the mode volume (Purcell definition), which I do using (meep-fields-modal-volume-in-box fields (meep-fields-total-volume fields)). This works well except in cases where I evaluate it at times when the electric field is very small - not surprising.
My question is: does anyone have a handy way of telling meep to calculate the mode volume when the field is at a maximum at a certain point? I'm trying to automate the process since we are running a large number of simulations. Thanks!
