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.

Thank you for your response. In https://optics.ansys.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042326694-Ferroelectric-modulator , it says

Due to the same reason as the one mentioned above, the Si layer in the waveguide also requires a voltage boundary condition. Instead of providing the boundary condition directly from a contact (gnd) we provided the boundary condition through another semiconductor region

If I make my SiO2 insulator, my semiconductor waveguide won't have any BC and according to the example that may cause inaccurate results.
