Would you please check that the simulation is long enough? Resonant structures can trap the light, so the simulation time may need to be increased. To check this, you can add a movie monitor and observe the fields propagating through the system, or you can add a time monitor and view the amplitude of the fields versus time. If you increase the simulation time and the results do not change, then the issue is probably something else.&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Best,&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anna&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-397121","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.10 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Hello,Thanks for sharing your simulation setup.
