<p>Hi Guilin,<\/p><p>Thank you for your reply. I would like to use the expansion monitors to try the angled monitor. I feel it is a little bit challenging for me. In order to describe my question more visually, I have attached an example. <\/p><p>According to the LumOpt tutorial page (https:\/\/lumopt.readthedocs.io\/en\/latest\/tutorial.html), the basic setup for the output waveguide is horizontal.<\/p><p>In this case, I want to set up the output waveguides with a certain angle so that they can split as early as possible. When I have angled output waveguides, the regular frequency & power monitors cannot work as an input source in the adjoint simulation with a minimum simulation time. Therefore, the frequency & power monitor might not work without a rotation for this inverse design. <\/p><p><\/p><p>I have attached the files through a Dropbox link and hope you could check them if possible.<\/p><p>(https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/scl\/fo\/say26373rq5dcm4ilwzvb\/h?dl=0&rlkey=d7srn5nctcfvafq6c2l6zth6i)<\/p><p>Thanks again for your time.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-286251","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
