Dear Subscriber,

By default, the DFT Monitor uses the source spectral limits. However, you can modify this as follows:

 

  • Navigate to Monitor Settings.

 

  • Under the General tab, check override global monitor settings.

 

  • Uncheck use source limits and set your desired range of interest.

 


Please note, that due to the nature of FDTD algorithm the finite duration/bandwidth of the source is always used. See Can we use a dipole source with a single frequency?

Additionally, refer to the article Frequency-domain Profile and Power Monitor – Simulation Object – Ansys Optics for more information.

Best regards,
Kirill
