Hello Lumerical Community,

We are trying to simulate Biphoton Wavefunction in four wave mixing with qInterconnect following the script generate_biphoton_wavefunction.py provided in [1]. We are wondering if this script could be adapted to a continuous wave pump? Is it possible to see the source function in python, or a reference paper that describes how is it generated? 

It gives the following error if we increase the pulse length to 0.5ns,

Thank you very much for your time and help.

Kind regards,
Liu

Currently we do not have script for CW pump. Please refer to this paper  L. G. Helt, Z. Yang, M. Liscidini, and J. E. Sipe, “Spontaneous four-wave mixing in microring
resonators,” Optics Letters , vol. 35, no. 18, pp. 3006–3008, Sep. 2010, doi:

The error message shows it has illegal value. So please follow the example.
