flex_rf.tidy3d.AxisAlignedVoltageIntegral

Type: class Base(s): AxisAlignedPathIntegral, AxisAlignedVoltageIntegralSpec

Class for computing the voltage between two points defined by an axis-aligned line.

voltage = AxisAlignedVoltageIntegral(
center=(0, 0, 0),
size=(0, 0, 2),
sign="+",
extrapolate_to_endpoints=True,
snap_path_to_grid=True,
)
size [TracedSize]

Size in x, y, and z directions.

sign [Direction]

Positive indicates V=Vb-Va where position b has a larger coordinate along the axis of integration.

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_voltage(em_field: IntegrableMonitorDataType)

Compute voltage along path defined by a line.
