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.

Box monitors should be inside FDTD this is for sure. What I mean is to place them above the thin fiim, in order to get the farfield in air (background material). 

You can place them inside the thin film. However it is projected inside the material, which cannot be measured in experiment. I am not sure the actual purpose doing this.
