Lesson 18 – 64-bit 3D Simulator
64-bit 3D Simulator Introduction
The workflow required to perform simulations with 64-bit 3D Simulator is almost the same as for the “regular” 32-bit simulator(s): Step Action 1 Create a New Layout a. Define the material and waveguide in profile designer b. Set up the initial simulation domain c. Draw the waveguide 2 Define simulation parameters 3 Define input wave…
New Layout
The following lesson uses straight channel waveguide as an example. Note: • The corresponding project file can be found in the Sample file folder, Sample43_64bit_3D_Simulations_Getting_Started.fdt. • If you already familiar with layout creation, please open the example project and go to the step “Perform the 64Bit-FDTD FDTD Simulation” • Please see other tutorial lessons to…
Simulation Parameters
Step Action 1 From the Simulation menu, select Simulate 3D Using 64-bit Simulator. The 3D Simulation Parameters dialog box appears (see Figure 1).3D simulation parameters dialog box Figure 1: 3D Simulation parameters dialog box 2 Type the following values for the mesh size: Mesh Delta X (mm): 0.07 Mesh Delta Y (mm): 0.07 Mesh Delta Z…
Post-Simulation Data Analysis
Our Analyzer provides a number of tools allowing for evaluation simulation results. Observation Point Step Action 1 Select “Observation Area Analysis” under the “Tools” menu in the Analyzer. Observation Point dialog box appears 2 To observe the time domain response in the observation point, check the observation point object, select the field components button, and…
