Your problem is that your S:AddLayer
command within the for loop is passing in the string c
, instead of your integer loop variable. This means every layer has the name 'c', which is not allows and is why you're seeing this duplicate layer name error. Try changing
S:AddLayer('c',0.1c, 'Vacuum')
S:SetLayerPatternRectangle('c','Vacuum', {0,0},0, {c*0.025,0.5})
to
S:AddLayer(tostring(c),0.1*c, 'Vacuum')
S:SetLayerPatternRectangle(tostring(c),'Vacuum', {0,0},0, {c*0.025,0.5})
Hi I would like to create a taper in 1D simulation. While I can write AddLayers and SetLayerPatternRectangle multiple times. However, this is not practical as the height of the grating increase. I tried writing a for loop but I get error message - GetEpsilon: A duplicate layer name was found. Does anyone know how to create multiple layers with different fill factors using a for loop?
thanks, A
S:AddLayer('S1',2, 'Hi_index') S:AddLayer('S2',0.5, 'Vacuum') S:SetLayerPatternRectangle('S2', -- which layer to alter 'Hi_index', -- material in rectangle {0,0}, -- center 0, -- tilt angle (degrees) {0.5*ff, 0.5}) -- half-widths
for xx=1,5,1 do c = xx print (2c) S:AddLayer('c',0.1c, 'Vacuum') S:SetLayerPatternRectangle('c','Vacuum', {0,0},0, {c*0.025,0.5}) end S:AddLayer('Slab3',0.5, 'Hi_index')
S:AddLayer('AirBelow', 0, 'Vacuum')
