tidy3d.AutoGrid#

class AutoGrid[source]#

Bases: GridSpec1d

Specification for non-uniform grid along a given dimension.

Parameters:
  • min_steps_per_wvl (ConstrainedFloatValue = 10.0) – Minimal number of steps per wavelength in each medium.

  • max_scale (ConstrainedFloatValue = 1.4) – Sets the maximum ratio between any two consecutive grid steps.

  • dl_min (NonNegativeFloat = 0) – Lower bound of the grid size along this dimension regardless of structures present in the simulation, including override structures with enforced=True. It is a soft bound, meaning that the actual minimal grid size might be slightly smaller.

  • mesher (GradedMesher = GradedMesher(type='GradedMesher')) – The type of mesher to use to generate the grid automatically.

Example

>>> grid_1d = AutoGrid(min_steps_per_wvl=16, max_scale=1.4)
