Dear @am987654321 , Thank you for the questions, and sorry for the late response.
(1) The design is a periodic array of nanoresonators, do I need to change anything in the files regarding the periodicity?
The MATLAB code works fine as well for periodic arrays. In Lumerical, electric field and refractive index monitors should include a unit of the nanostructure.
(2) The design is a hybrid resonator, consisting of metallic aluminum (Al) disk with a silicon (Si) disk on top of the Al disk. I want to calculate the contribution of the electric dipole of Al and the modal contributions of Si at the same time. Can I add monitors around Al and other monitors around Si to get the total modal expansion?
I think it is difficult to separate each contribution of Al and Si in the hybrid structure because they "hybridize". In the hybrid structure, a monitor should be put as it includes the whole hybrid structure. To see each contribution, I recommend running separate simulations for Al (w/o Si) and Si (w/o Al).
(3) I noticed that you are using 2 sets of field monitors at different distances from the resonator. I am thinking of using field monitors at the edge of each resonator. What do you think, please?
Could you clarify the fsp file you are talking about?
Dear Dr. Tatsuki,
Thank you for this great work. It should be an essential tool for researchers in the field of Mie resonators. I am trying to use MENP to carry out the multipole expansion of a design and I have some questions, please.
