      Hello,
      Before investing a large portion of time learning the OptiwaveFDTD 32-bit software (or any other softwares) I’d like to check that my system is feasible to model? I would like to model an anisotropic planar array of metallic nanorods (small metallic cylinders), with a tilt angle to the plane which I can specify. I want to visualise the resulting charge density waves that propogate through the system due to interactions, given some initial conditions (for example oscillating the charge density in a single nanorod at a specific frequency). I attempted a similar thing in COMSOL but it used up all the 200GB of RAM available and didn’t work. I was told that a FDTD software would be better (although I don’t really understand the difference).

      Many thanks for any help,
      Tom Sturges
