tidy3d.PECMedium#

class tidy3d.PECMedium#

Perfect electrical conductor class.

Parameters

name (Optional[str] = None) – Optional unique name for medium.
frequency_range (Optional[Tuple[float, float]] = None) – [units = (Hz, Hz)]. Optional range of validity for the medium.

Note

To avoid confusion from duplicate PECs, should import tidy3d.PEC instance directly.
