I am trying to use the sample files for inverse design of y-branch<\/a> without making any changes to follow the steps. <\/p>\n

After running the 2.5D optimization, I finally got the optimized geometry in the Figure 1 and the MODE file “adjoint_0.lms” as shown below. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When the optimization was done, the MODE file named “y_branch_2D_FINAL.lms” showed up as shown below. However, the geometry was different from the optimized one. When I ran the 3D optimization, this geometry was used as the initial input. Thus, the 3D optimization did not work well. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And more, the GDS file was not generated after the 2.5D optimization, though the text file named “2D_parameters.txt” was generated in the same folder as the sample files and the python files. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Thus, I would like to know <\/p>\n

Q1. Why the 2.5D optimized geometry was not shown in y_branch_2D_FINAL.lms<\/p>\n

Q2. Why the 2.5D optimized geometry was not used as the initial input for the 3D optimization<\/p>\n

Q3. Why the GDS file for the 2.5D optimized geometry was not saved or exported. <\/p>\n
