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.

I believe the movie result you observed is wrong, even though it has angle. 

When source has angle theta not zero, in the angled plane you should use Bloch BCs. The result of magnitude is uniform, because it is plane wave. If you want to see the change of the wave form, you need to check the real or imaginary E, which has phase term included.

Please consider the physics of the results.
