[Meep-discuss] Periodic Boundary in Meep

2017-07-17 Thread Maximin Fotsing kuetche
Good day everyone, I want to make FDTD-Meep calcul with a structure periodic in two direction X and Z and I want to make sure that my .ctl file is good.I essentially have doubt with the necessary variables to set periodic boundaries conditions. Here is a part of my .ctl file: (set!

[Meep-discuss] scattering on Meep

Good day everyone, I am simulating scatering properties of some particle. For a size smaller than 35nm calculations run very well and I obtain good results. However when I increase the size of Nanoparticle to more than 40nm, at the end of calculations I obtain '+nan of -nan' as result (see this

Hi sir Laxman Kumar Meena, Your question seems very strange to me. Please where is it mentioned that MEEP or FDTD in general can not treat materials with negative values of permittivity? I do know that Meep can simulate metals like Gold or Silver using their Drude or Lorentz-Drude models of

[Meep-discuss] plot intensity of fields from data in a HDF5 file (.h5)

Good day, I have in a .h5 file informations about a component Ez of electric field. During simulations without (for incident field data) and with structure I stored the field component in a line.  I want to plot the evolution of the field intensity for each point of the line. Please can

Dear Jiancheng, Constant values of 11,7 (for amorphous Silicon's permittivity ) and 11,9 (for cristalline Silicon's permittivity) are sometimes used and furnish appreciated results in certains cases. You are right when saying that refractive index or permittivity of silicon is really a
