Re: [Meep-discuss] Band calculation for a triangular lattice

Dear Sang Soon, Thanks for your detailed comments. However, I still believe that eliminating the folded bands in a single MEEP run could be done for the following reasons, of course, if I could correct my ctl file: (A) Steven G. Johnson's old reply is quoted below: From: Steven G. Johnson Su

[Meep-discuss] Generating collapsing spherical wavefront

2009-10-14 Thread ObsessiveMathsFreak
I'm currently trying to use meep to get a better feel for wave front caustics. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not. What I would like to do is generate a inwardly collapsing spherical wave front, but meep does not seem to support sources with complex geometry. So far I have been making

I appologize for the SPAM! Indeed, if I place this line after setting the symmetry everything is alright. I wasn't aware of that. Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience. Regards Bernd On Wed, Oct 14, 2009 at 6:56 PM, Bernd Schmid wrote: > I forgot to mention one thing. > After adding this li

I forgot to mention one thing. After adding this line it suddenly takes twice the time for set_epsilon. I have a symmetry defined, can this be an issue? ___ meep-discuss mailing list meep-discuss@ab-initio.mit.edu http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman

[Meep-discuss] Simulation abortion after adding an add-flux command

Hello, I have a 2D Photonic Crystal simulation, which runs perfectly and stops after about 20 minutes as expected. However, as soon as I am adding this line: (define pump0 (add-flux fpump 0 1 (make flux-region (center 0 0 0) (size 0 0 0) (direction X the simulation stops after magnificent 4.

Hi, I don't think your calculation is wrong. However, because you used a supercell of sqrt(a) * a, the results should include the folded bands as well as the original ones. Because the supercell has the area of 2 times of the primitive unit cell size of hexagonal lattice, the 1st BZ (rectagular

Hello, I am trying to compute a band diagram of a triangular lattice with a supercell of sqrt(a) x a.  I have read carefully the previous discussions and hints, such as [Re: How Harminv works, Wed, 27 May 2009], [Re: Band Diagram calculation by FDTD, 2007-12-03], and [Re: source definition, Tu
