flex_rf.tidy3d.AxisAlignedPathIntegral

Type: class Base(s): AxisAlignedPathIntegralSpec

Class for defining the simplest type of path integral, which is aligned with Cartesian axes.

path = AxisAlignedPathIntegral(
center=(0, 0, 1),
size=(0, 0, 2),
extrapolate_to_endpoints=True,
snap_path_to_grid=False,
)
size [TracedSize]

Size in x, y, and z directions.

center [TracedCoordinate] = (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)

Center of object in x, y, and z.

extrapolate_to_endpoints [bool] = False

If the endpoints of the path integral terminate at or near a material interface, the field is likely discontinuous. When this field is True, fields that are outside and on the bounds of the integral are ignored. Should be enabled when computing voltage between two conductors.

snap_path_to_grid [bool] = False

It might be desirable to integrate exactly along the Yee grid associated with a field. When this field is True, the integration path will be snapped to the grid.

compute_integral(scalar_field: EMScalarFieldType)

Computes the defined integral given the input scalar_field.
