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 very much for your reply. Can I understand this way: If the electric field is cut off to zero inside or at the edge of the monitor by using a larger monitor, then the far-field filter function can be unnecessary. If I want to observe the far-field radiation pattern distribution of particles on the substrate (possibly SPPs waves), is a box monitor the best choice? Are there requirements for the location of the box monitor for the dipole source and distance from other structures? Hope to get your reply, thank you very much!
