Dear Steven and all: I am a new user of Meep. What I want to ask is about: How can I determine the time-average input power and record the time-average output power at some position? According to the part "Units and Nonlinearity in Meep" on the website, the input power is approximately proportional to the square of current amplitude(J^2). Is that a time-average correlation? Further, in the nonlinear situation recording time-average power seems problematic. Has this been fixed? Actually the ultimate purpose is to repeat the optical bistable results published in Appl.Phys.Lett, 83,2739(2003) by M.F.Yanik. If anyone can tell me how to write the loop to record the output power vs the input power data, your great help is highly appreciated. Thanks very much. Ziming
