      This example demonstrates the basic functions of the RCWA solver . The reflection and transmission from a silicon photonic crystal slab is calculated. The results with different number of k-vectors will be compared to simulation results from the literature through convergence testing. Lastly, the reflection and transmission are calculated as a function of frequency, incident angle, and polarization.
