Hi, I am currently having a problem with modeling a 1x1 micron SiO2 waveguide sitting on a Si substrate. With a gaussian pulse centered 1.55 microns at one end of a 31x8x8 cell, and a waveguide of (infinity 1 1) dimensions, I am seeing the mode propagate with a resolution of 5. As the resolution increases, the flux observed at the end of the cell drops dramatically to almost 10^-6 less when the resolution is 10.
I am changing no other parameters between runs but the resolution. Am I making a numerical error, or have I misunderstood the physics possibly? Any insight would be appreciated. Thomas The .ctl file is attached.
