Dear MPB Users
When I simulate Band Gap in triangular PC, the result is different for
different size of the geometry.
e.g. in simple following ctl file, when I set L=7 or L=1, the gap diagram is
different but Epsilon.png files are similar after using mpb-data -r -x -7 -y -1
-n 64 epsilon.h5 for one with L=1;
I think if we repeat one single row of the holes in geometry or
repeat one block of holes (including 7 rows) the result
should be same.
why the simulation result vary with the size of the geometry?
My be I don't have good understanding about meaning of size in definition of
geometry or not fully understand of
mpb-data -r -x -7 -y -1 -n 64 epsilon.h5
Please help.
Regards
Hassan
