tidy3d.VolumetricAveraging

class VolumetricAveraging

Bases: AbstractSubpixelAveragingMethod

Apply volumetric averaging scheme to material properties of Yee grids on structure boundaries. The material property is averaged in the volume surrounding the Yee grid.

Parameters:

staircase_normal_component (bool = True) – Volumetric averaging works accurately if the electric field component is substantially tangential to the interface. If True, apply volumetric averaging only if the field component is largely tangential to the interface; if False, apply volumetric averaging regardless of how field component orients with the interface.
