I think it is a little bit arbitrary. The monitor should be a little larger than the absorption region due to discretization and internal interpolation. If I do it, I would prefer to use 02*0.2*0.1 um, again it is arbitrary. It is the refractive index monitor data that is determines where the absorption is (the absorption is proportional to imag(permittivity)).
The online examples only give some description on critical parameters, which could be improved later for easy understanding.
