Fields
attribute data_attrs: Dict[str, str] = None#

explanation of values values is a numpy array that stores the raw data associated with each MonitorData. It can be complex-valued or real valued, depending on whether data is in the frequency or time domain, respectively. Each axis in values corresponds to a specific dimension in the MonitorData, which are supplied as arguments to the MonitorData subclasses. The order of the dimensions is specified in the _dims attribute of each MonitorData subclass

Dictionary storing extra attributes associated with the monitor data.

attribute values: Union[tidy3d.components.types.Array, tidy3d.components.types.Array] [Required]#

Values of the raw data being stored.

add_to_group(hdf5_grp) → None#

Add data contents to an hdf5 group.

classmethod load_from_group(hdf5_grp)#

Load Monitor data instance from an hdf5 group.

property data: tidy3d.components.data.Tidy3dDataArray#

Returns an xarray representation of the montitor data.

Returns

Representation of the monitor data using xarray. For more details refer to xarray’s Documentaton.

Return type

xarray.DataArray

property sim_data_getitem: tidy3d.components.data.Tidy3dDataArray#

What gets returned by sim_data[‘monitor_data_name’]
