Hello dear meep users,

I am simulating an optical fiber structure having a grating layer on its tip. A 
circular source is placed inside the core and transmissiom and reflection flux 
is measured above and below the grating layer on the tip of fiber. In this 
senario, transmission monitor layer is placed in the air just above the grating 
and reflection monitir layer is placed inside the core and cladding just below 
the grating layer. 

The refrective indices of the structures are core: 1.468, cladding: 1.4613, 
grating layer: 2.134. 

If i simulate just the grating suspended in the air, the transmission and 
reflection spectra are symmetric. While if i include core and cladding 
transmission spectrum remains the same but reflection sprectrum show strange 
graph. It ossicilates between -3 to 0.2 reflection values instead of staying in 
between 0 and 1. 


Can any body suggest what is the problem.
