tidy3d.ModeSolverData#

class tidy3d.ModeSolverData#

Data associated with a ModeSolverMonitor: scalar components of E and H fields.

Parameters
  • Ex (ScalarModeFieldDataArray) – Spatial distribution of the x-component of the electric field of the mode.

  • Ey (ScalarModeFieldDataArray) – Spatial distribution of the y-component of the electric field of the mode.

  • Ez (ScalarModeFieldDataArray) – Spatial distribution of the z-component of the electric field of the mode.

  • Hx (ScalarModeFieldDataArray) – Spatial distribution of the x-component of the magnetic field of the mode.

  • Hy (ScalarModeFieldDataArray) – Spatial distribution of the y-component of the magnetic field of the mode.

  • Hz (ScalarModeFieldDataArray) – Spatial distribution of the z-component of the magnetic field of the mode.

  • monitor (ModeSolverMonitor) – symmetry : Tuple[Literal[0, -1, 1], Literal[0, -1, 1], Literal[0, -1, 1]] = (0, 0, 0) Symmetry eigenvalues of the original simulation in x, y, and z.

  • symmetry_center (Optional[Tuple[float, float, float]] = None) – Center of the symmetry planes of the original simulation in x, y, and z. Required only if any of the symmetry field are non-zero.

  • grid_expanded (Optional[Grid] = None) – Grid on which the symmetry will be expanded. Required only if any of the symmetry field are non-zero.

  • grid_primal_correction (Union[float, FreqDataArray, TimeDataArray, FreqModeDataArray] = 1.0) – Correction factor that needs to be applied for data corresponding to a 2D monitor to take into account the finite grid in the normal direction in the simulation in which the data was computed. The factor is applied to fields defined on the primal grid locations along the normal direction.

  • grid_dual_correction (Union[float, FreqDataArray, TimeDataArray, FreqModeDataArray] = 1.0) – Correction factor that needs to be applied for data corresponding to a 2D monitor to take into account the finite grid in the normal direction in the simulation in which the data was computed. The factor is applied to fields defined on the dual grid locations along the normal direction.

  • n_complex (ModeIndexDataArray) – Complex-valued effective propagation constants associated with the mode.

Example

>>> from tidy3d import ModeSpec
>>> from tidy3d import ScalarModeFieldDataArray, ModeIndexDataArray
>>> x = [-1,1]
>>> y = [0]
>>> z = [-3,-1,1,3]
>>> f = [2e14, 3e14]
>>> mode_index = np.arange(5)
>>> field_coords = dict(x=x, y=y, z=z, f=f, mode_index=mode_index)
>>> field = ScalarModeFieldDataArray((1+1j)*np.random.random((2,1,4,2,5)), coords=field_coords)
>>> index_coords = dict(f=f, mode_index=mode_index)
>>> index_data = ModeIndexDataArray((1+1j) * np.random.random((2,5)), coords=index_coords)
>>> monitor = ModeSolverMonitor(
...    size=(2,0,6),
...    freqs=[2e14, 3e14],
...    mode_spec=ModeSpec(num_modes=5),
...    name='mode_solver',

attribute monitor: ModeSolverMonitor [Required]#
overlap_sort(track_freq: Literal['central', 'lowest', 'highest'], overlap_thresh: float = 0.9) tidy3d.components.data.monitor_data.ModeSolverData#

Starting from the base frequency defined by parameter track_freq, sort modes at each frequency according to their overlap values with the modes at the previous frequency. That is, it attempts to rearrange modes in such a way that a given mode_index corresponds to physically the same mode at all frequencies. Modes with overlap values over overlap_tresh are considered matching and not rearranged.

Parameters
  • track_freq (Literal["central", "lowest", "highest"]) – Parameter that specifies which frequency will serve as a starting point in the reordering process.

  • overlap_thresh (float = 0.9) – Modal overlap threshold above which two modes are considered to be the same and are not rearranged. If after the sorting procedure the overlap value between two corresponding modes is less than this threshold, a warning about a possible discontinuity is displayed.
