I've designed a inverted pyramid in solidworks and import it into FDTD but can't change the dimension or position in the FDTD and when i copy this object, it doesn't create any object. I've attached the STL file below,

Hi Kawshik,

Thank you for reaching out to us, unfortunately it is not possible to attach files on this post. Have you gone through the notes int this article: STL import - Simulation object? Also, did you try importing you file with the command:  stlimport - Script command?

Kind Regards,

Niki

I've solved the problem but when I'm importing the solidworks STl file and started simulation i've faces some problems. The reflectance and transmittance curve isn't accurate. Very much disturbed curve which i found here. This picture didn't look like which i got from the fdtd if i draw the structure in fdtd.

 I've attached the corresponding figure of reflectance and transmittance.

Plz, help me to solve this problem.

Hi Kawshik,

Thank you for your screenshots. I would expect the two different methods to have variations. These screenshots are the R and T in the case of STL import? Do you have the R and T in the case of creating the structure in the software? If yes, how much more accurate are these?

Kind Regards,

Niki
