tidy3d.ModeSolverData#

class tidy3d.ModeSolverData#

Bases: tidy3d.components.data.dataset.ModeSolverDataset, tidy3d.components.data.monitor_data.ElectromagneticFieldData

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',
... )

Parameters

fname (str) – Full path to the .yaml file to load the Tidy3dBaseModel from.

dot(field_data: Union[tidy3d.components.data.monitor_data.FieldData, tidy3d.components.data.monitor_data.ModeSolverData], conjugate: bool = True) tidy3d.components.data.data_array.ModeAmpsDataArray#

Dot product (modal overlap) with another FieldData object. Both datasets have to be frequency-domain data associated with a 2D monitor. Along the tangential directions, the datasets have to have the same discretization. Along the normal direction, the monitor position may differ and is ignored. Other coordinates (frequency, mode_index) have to be either identical or broadcastable. Broadcasting is also supported in the case in which the other field_data has a dimension of size 1 whose coordinate is not in the list of coordinates in the self dataset along the corresponding dimension. In that case, the coordinates of the self dataset are used in the output.

Parameters
  • field_data (ElectromagneticFieldData) – A data instance to compute the dot product with.

  • conjugate (bool, optional) – If True (default), the dot product is defined as 1 / 4 times the integral of E_self* x H_other - H_self* x E_other, where x is the cross product and * is complex conjugation. If False, the complex conjugation is skipped.

Note

The dot product with and without conjugation is equivalent (up to a phase) for modes in lossless waveguides but differs for modes in lossy materials. In that case, the conjugated dot product can be interpreted as the fraction of the power of the first mode carried by the second, but modes are not orthogonal with respect to that product and the sum of carried power fractions exceed 1. In the non-conjugated definition, orthogonal modes can be defined, but the interpretation of modal overlap as power carried by a given mode is no longer valid.

Parameters
