Hi All,
I am trying to built a model on 2D Hexagonal Periodic Array with periodicity in the xy-plane. For that I have defined a 3D hexagonal unit cell with the top and bottom hexagonal faces as the excitation and destination ports respectively. For the remaining 6 rectangular faces I define 3 (2 faces each) periodic conditions on the opposite faces. A plane wave is incident along the z direction( presently normal to the xy plane but later would like to change for different incident angles) with E polarized along the x-direction.
First of all is the unit cell definition along with the periodic condition application sides are correct?
Secondly how do I use Floquet Periodicity with correct Kf definitions? Will it be similar to plasmonic wire grating case where array periodicity and Floquet kf are parallel which is not in my case ?
A pdf showing the model geomerty along with the periodic Boundary conditions is attached.
I would be really grateful if you guys help me out.
