I'm attaching a test file I just created. I didn't compare any simulation results, just the created .h5 files.
I don't fully understand the mesh-size averaging, but setting it to 1 seems to work to get identical epsilon outputs. :)

Dear all, Have you successfully used the epsilon-input-file command in your control files? In my simulation of optical gratings, there seems to be a problem whenever I use epsilon-input-file. Concretely: - First, I simulate (normally, no epsilon-input-file) my grating and export the eps file - Second, I modify the control file to import the previously generated epsilon-input-file and delete any all geometry commands I notice the following: - When importing the epsilon file and outputting it again, the values changed (averaged? Scaled?) even if I am setting eps-averaging off. - The simulation no longer yields the same result if I import the epsilon file (e.g. as if the wavelength had changed). My questions: - Are there any parameters I have to set along with eps-import-file? (since re-importing does not work) - Does the order of the commands play a crucial role? (just checking...) N.B. I'll be happy to reproduce the code if needed but I don't like to spam people :) Thanks a lot Armand _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
