Extruded

class photonforge.Extruded(medium, face, limits, dilations=(0, 0), axis='z')

Extruded volumetric object.

Parameters:

• medium – Tidy3D medium used in this structure.

• face – Planar structure to be extruded.

• limits – Coordinates for the lower and upper limits of extrusion in the out-of-plane axis.

• dilations – Dilations (erosions, if negative) applied to the planar structure at the lower and upper limits of extrusion.

• axis – Extrusion (out-of-plane) axis.

Example

>>> extruded = Extruded(
...     td.Medium(permittivity=1.5), pf.Circle(5), (-0.5, 0.5)
... )
>>> extruded.to_tidy3d().plot(z=0)

to_tidy3d()

Create a Tidy3D structure from this extruded solid.

Returns:

Tidy3D structure.
