Dear MEEP users,
        I have modeled a dispersive material and now trying to simulate a 
sphere. I am having a problem with the size of sphere. My sphere radius is 0.01 
(in meep units), which is equivalent to 10nm. The source size is 0.5 x 0.5 x 0. 
See the code given below. The problem is that when i run the simulation, i 
obtained a very small sphere, which seems like a point. I don't want to change 
the radius of the sphere because i saw on the meep group that the sphere radius 
should be much smaller than the size of source and also one big reason is that 
when i increased the radius of a sphere then i got higher modes. I am only 
interested in lower modes like monopole, diapole and quadrapole etc. I even 
increased the resolution up to 150 but still facing the same problem. I am 
using "h5topng -S3 -t1:6000 -y15 -Zc dkbluered sphere-y-efield.h5" for output. 
Does anybody know where the problem is? or Give me some suggestions to solve 
this problem. 
 
 (set! geometry-lattice (make lattice (size 0.5 0.5 1)))
(set! geometry
    (list
    (make sphere (center 0 0 0) (radius 0.01)
            (material (make dielectric (epsilon 1)
                . . . . .                     
))
(set! resolution 150)
(set! sources    (list
            (make source
                (src(make gaussian-src (wavelength 0.6) (width 0.6)))           
    
                (component Ey)
                (center 0 0 -0.3)
                (size 0.5 0.5 0)
            )
        )
)   . . . . . 
 
Best Regards,
Hogen
