**************** Material Library **************** .. currentmodule:: tidy3d The material library is a dictionary containing various dispersive models from real world materials. To use the materials in the library, import it first by: >>> from tidy3d import material_library The key of the dictionary is the abbreviated material name. Note: some materials have multiple variant models, in which case the second key is the "variant" name. To import a material "mat" of variant "var": >>> medium = material_library['mat']['var'] For example, silver measured by A. D. Rakic et al. (1998) can be loaded as: >>> silver = material_library['Ag']['Rakic1998BB'] You can also import the default variant of a material by: >>> medium = material_library['mat'].medium It is often useful to see the full list of variants for a given medium: >>> print(material_library['mat'].variants.keys()) To access the details of a variant, including material model, references and tabulated data, use the following command: >>> material_library['mat'].variants['var'] Silver ("Ag") ============= .. table:: :widths: auto =========================== ========================== ============= ========================================================================================================= Variant Valid for Model Info Reference =========================== ========================== ============= ========================================================================================================= ``'JohnsonChristy1972'`` 0.19 - 1.94 :math:`{\mu}m` 5-pole, lossy [1] `[data] `__ ``'Rakic1998BB'`` (default) 0.25 - 12.4 :math:`{\mu}m` 3-pole, lossy [2] `[data] `__ ``'RakicLorentzDrude1998'`` 0.25 - 12.4 :math:`{\mu}m` 8-pole, lossy [2] `[data] `__ ``'Yang2015Drude'`` 0.19 - 1.94 :math:`{\mu}m` 3-pole, lossy [3] `[data] `__ =========================== ========================== ============= ========================================================================================================= Examples: >>> medium = material_library['Ag']['JohnsonChristy1972'] >>> medium = material_library['Ag']['Rakic1998BB'] >>> medium = material_library['Ag']['RakicLorentzDrude1998'] >>> medium = material_library['Ag']['Yang2015Drude'] References: #. \P.
