I was prompted by Steven Johnson's recent posting (1st Nov) to switch some of my simulations to use the MEEP GaussianBeamSource. The documentation states that a complex valued polarization vector can be used to generate a circular polarized beam, but there are no explicit instructions for this. I seem to have tried every sane combination of y and z values (for an x-axis propagating beam, source is a line along the y-axis, 2-d simulation) without success.
Does anyone have a working sample circular polarized GaussianBeamSource code, which they can share? Many thanks, Ian _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
