Hello Thanh,

 

I agree that the results don’t appear to be correct. Here are a few debugging steps that might help:

  1. Verify if you obtain the same results when using the built-in monitor visualizer within the Lumerical IDE.
  2. Ensure your simulation setup aligns with the recommendations in the RCWA Product Reference Manual.
  3. Begin by testing simpler structures with well-understood behavior, such as a planar interface or basic gratings. Check if you can reproduce results from RCWA solver application examples, like the Photonic Crystal Slab (RCWA) or Surface Relief Grating for Augmented Reality System.

 

Best regards,
Kirill
