      Hi,

      I recently started using OptiFDTD 32-bit to model Nano wire laser with hexagonal cross section shape. I was wondering if:
      1. The software is able to draw hexagonal shape?
      2. I can see different transverse modes as function of nanowire diameter?

      Regards,
      Mahmoud

      Hi Mahmoud,

      1. yes, it is able to draw hexagonal shape.
      2. transverse modes can be solved for different structure sizes.

      Thanks. I need hexagonal cross section nanowire lay on X-Z plane (hexagonal area on X-Y plane) so that I can propagate wave through the nanowire. What I found is the hexagonal shape may be used but it is not going to be in X-Y plane. IF you still think it is possible to draw hexagonal in X-Y plane (as fiber cross section), or even if we can propagate wave in Y direction instead of Z or X let me know please.

      I look forward to hear from you.

      Regards,
      Mahmoud
