As explained in the manual, output-tot-pwr actually outputs the energy density; it is somewhat confusingly named for historical reasons. If you want the Poynting vector, you can use output-sfield-x, output-sfield-y, and output-sfield-z to output the different components of the Poynting vector, which give the instantaneous rate of energy flux (power per unit area) in different directions, at every point in a structure. _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
