class AbstractFieldMonitor[source]#

Bases: Monitor, ABC

Monitor that records electromagnetic field data as a function of x,y,z.

Parameters:
  • center (Tuple[float, float, float] = (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)) – [units = um]. Center of object in x, y, and z.

  • size (Tuple[NonNegativeFloat, NonNegativeFloat, NonNegativeFloat]) – [units = um]. Size in x, y, and z directions.

  • name (ConstrainedStrValue) – Unique name for monitor.

  • interval_space (Tuple[PositiveInt, PositiveInt, PositiveInt] = (1, 1, 1)) – Number of grid step intervals between monitor recordings. If equal to 1, there will be no downsampling. If greater than 1, the step will be applied, but the first and last point of the monitor grid are always included.

  • colocate (bool = True) – Toggle whether fields should be colocated to grid cell boundaries (i.e. primal grid nodes).

  • fields (Tuple[Literal['Ex', 'Ey', 'Ez', 'Hx', 'Hy', 'Hz'], ...] = ['Ex', 'Ey', 'Ez', 'Hx', 'Hy', 'Hz']) – Collection of field components to store in the monitor.
