How to calculate the mode volume in 2D PhCs structure?

      "Could you provide guidance on how to find the electric field using this mode volume formula?"

      Hi Muhammad,

      In FDTD simulation, we calculate the electric field first and then the mode volume is calculated using the equation. Are you using an analysis group to calculate the mode volume? If yes, you will see that there is a DFT monitor within the group that calculate the eectric field distribution.
