[Meep-discuss] Question about units in the Material Dispersion page on the MEEP ab-initio website

2012-03-06 Thread Eric Smoll
Hello all, I have searched the archives and read through all the material on the website but am still unsatisfied with my understanding of units on the Material Dispersion page. http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Meep_Tutorial/Material_dispersion I know from the archives that omega and

Is numpy/python-meep competitive with the the C++ Meep interface for very long simulations with interpolated discrete custom source functions. Best, Eric ___ meep-discuss mailing list meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu

Can one define a source function with interpolated discrete data with inline C/C++ when using python-meep in the same way it is used to speed the definition a material function? -Eric ___ meep-discuss mailing list meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu

Hello Meep users, In a thread titled: using perfect metal in C++ interface ( http://www.mail-archive.com/meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu/msg01997.html) Professor Johnson clarified that one controls the spatial location of the polarizability with sigma. However, both Renaud Vallee (

[Meep-discuss] Spatial coordinates associated with discrete output from a specified volume

2012-11-26 Thread Eric Smoll
I would like to know the spatial coordinates of each point in an an output volume (a line, for example). Can I get meep to output the spatial coordinates of each point? This would be excellent. If not, can anyone explain how meep compute the coordinates that it chooses to output so I can do it

2013-12-18 Thread Eric Smoll
Hello MEEP users, I know that you can use the flux-region tool in an FDTD simulation to find far field measurements of absorption, scattering, and extinction. As far as I understand, I should be able to compute these quantities using the field amplitudes given by meep-fields-solve-cw and the
