Hi Nizamov,
This is how I defined the source in scheme:
(set! sources (list
(make source
(src (make gaussian-src (frequency fcen) (fwidth df)))
(component Ey) (center -1.4 -1.7))))
I already shifted the coordinates. And regardless of the source location, I am
getting the field at the source point anyway. So I still don't get why the
amplitude is different.. Please take another look. I think I can definitely get
some answers from you. :) Thanks a lot.

Subject: Re: [Meep-discuss] gaussian src in scheme and C++
A quick glance at your examples reveals several differences in your examples.
1) In C++ case, the source is very close to the PML area (remember
that origin is in the corner, that's why source at 1.1 is very close
to the PML, which ends at 1.0). In Scheme example source is alsmost in
the center of the cell, far from adsorbing layer.
2) Look's like that you are aware that C++ uses complex fields by
default. But Scheme by default uses real valued fields.
with best regards,
