Defining the electrode

[Dr. MohammadMahdi AriannejadParticipant]

Regarding to the new technologies and old one would you please put the option for electrodes in FDTD?(like BPM) seriously I wish to have this option and I do not want to go for any other software’s, please do something about it, thanks.

Hi Mohammad,

To be clear you want the ability to have an electrically controlled dielectric constant through the electro-optic effect?

[Dr. MohammadMahdi AriannejadParticipant]

The exact thing that I want to do is connecting my waveguide to electricity i this simulation like BPM and on the other hand I would be happy to have the option to open my BPM files in the FDTD. 🙂

Do you have a schematic or article of your desired simulation? Parts of it may be possible for simulation by splitting up the domain into an OptiBPM and OptiFDTD problem.

[Dr. MohammadMahdi AriannejadParticipant]

schematic that I am dealing with is easy, it is splitter, just Y shape. would you please describe more? I wish bpm and FDTD some how combine some features together one day!!!! many thanks

I share the same wish/advice

Hi..

Is there any option to define electrodes in optiFDTD. My requirement is to control my photonic device using electric field. I have done it in optiBPM. Furthe I want to do it in optiFDTD. Please share the possibility of doing same in optiFDTD. Thanks in advance…
