FARFIELD

Computes the far-field limit of the fields at a given plane, specified

 

as xlo x xhi, ylo y yhi, zlo z zhi. Because this range must

 

specify a plane, the upper and lower limits of one axis must be the

 

same to within basicstep/2. The coordinates will be correctly

 

rounded to integral numbers of cells. We assume that the fields

 

propagate through an infinite half-space of refractive index n (which

 

obviously must be lossless). The refractive index is taken to be the

 

real part of the index in the actual model at the centre of the

 

supplied plane, {xmin x xmax, ymin yymax, zmin z zmax}.

 

The parameter direction can be up or down depending on which

 

direction we’re interested in. Internally, POEMS uses both E and H

 

field information to separate out the incoming and outgoing fields,

 

so the computed far field spectrum wht direction=down can be very

 

different from that with direction=up. At present this statement

 

produces bitmaps of s- and p-polarized field amplitude and phase at

 

each point (u, v) in the pupil plane.

 

Currently the FARFIELD statement can be applied only on planes of

 

uniform granularity, i.e. basicstep must be the same in all

 

subdomains cut by the given plane.

 

Parameters: name xlo xhi ylo yhi zlo zhi file direction

 

 

 

 

FLUX

Computes an integral of the Poynting vector through the given

 

surface, in the inward direction. This isn’t quite the same as using

 

the INTEGRAL statement directly, because it adds the ability to

 

specify an interior point. A positive flux is going in the direction

 

towards from (xInside, yInside, zInside).

 

Parameters: name xinside yinside zinside xlo xhi ylo yhi zlo zhi

 

 

 

 

INTEGRAL

Computes a volume or surface integral of a given field function by

 

summing all the blocks lying in the specified region. If the region

 

has a nonzero thickness (after rounding to the nearest multiple of

 

BASICSTEP), it’s normalized as a volume integral; if two have a

 

nonzero thickness, it’s normalized as a surface integral of the broad

 

face of the region; and if only one dimension has a nonzero size, it’s

 

normalized as a line integral. Specify the integrand field or

 

postprocess quantity as variable, and make sure there’s a matching

 

statement that generates an array of the given quantity, because it

 

won’t be done automatically.

 

Parameters: name variable xlo xhi ylo yhi zlo zhi
