tidy3d.plugins.Near2FarSurface

class tidy3d.plugins.Near2FarSurface

Data structure to store surface monitor data with associated surface current densities.

Parameters

• monitor (FieldMonitor = None) – FieldMonitor on which near fields will be sampled and integrated.

• normal_dir (Literal['+', '-'] = None) – Direction of the surface monitor’s normal vector w.r.t. the positive x, y or z unit vectors. Must be one of ‘+’ or ‘-‘.
