flex_rf.tidy3d.VolumetricAveraging

Type: class │ Base(s): AbstractSubpixelAveragingMethod

Description

Section titled “Description”

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

Section titled “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.
