We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

 We can do a sweep using the Sweep Utility:

Once you edit the sweep to set the parameters for sweep. I would recommend you to have a look at this article to set up the sweep: Parameter sweep utility.

In this case the parameters will be the thickness of the layers, whichever layer/layers you would want to sweep. For example, if you just want to sweep d3, you can select it as a parameter as shown below:

Then you can set appropriate ranges for each parameter, add the result that will be saved after each sweep, like the effective index etc.
