Re: [Meep-discuss] dispersive material with birefringence

Hi Gonzague, Try look at the Lithium Niobate implementation in the materials library: https://github.com/NanoComp/meep/blob/e9251c32bef33eee05994872b07803b159e9f8b6/python/materials.py#L1027-L1064 . As you'll see, it's pretty straightforward to do what you wish. Thanks, Alec On Tue, Jul 16, 20

[Meep-discuss] dispersive material with birefringence

Dear all, I am trying to define a material that conbine birefringence (via eps-diag) and dispersive properties (via E-susceptibilities). I wonder if there is a way in meep to do that. Thanks Gonzague -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is

Hi everybody, I'm very very confused about how to specify correctly the parameters for my dispersive material. My unit is a=1e-2m and the data about my material is (before any conversion for Meep): epsilon_inf = 6.75 omega_n = 1e12 gamma = -1.01e13 delta-epsilon = sigma (for newer versions) = 47.9

i didn't find the 'cause' of the problem, but if you reduce the strength of the PML down to 0.1 from the default value of 1, it doesn't blow up. it also appears that you need to increase the size of the PML. finally, it appears to be dependent on the actual parameters you use for the disper
