Hello All:
I am trying to simulate 2D Photonic Crystals using FullWave FDTD simulation tool by R-Soft. My first step is to get the transmission charateristics of the PC. To do this, I am plotting the |Ey|² vs. the frequency (taking the FFT).
1] I would like to know more about the positioning of the time monitor.
2] In the reciprocal space we know about the 1st Brillouin Zone, hence the Γ-X and Γ-K directions of propogation. The bandgaps are different for these two directions. Now, what is the equivalent in the real space (FDTD problem space)?
Thanks in advance.
