Hi. No, it is not a polarization rotator. To demonstrate this point, simulate the metasurface for both TE and TM modes. You can see cross-reflection is zero.
Yes, I didn't mention it but it was shown in the video. It is not required to set the distance, it will be set due to the wavelength automatically by CST.
Yes, you can use "Result Templates" to extract permittivity and permeability. Floquet mode determines your incident polarization (1 and 2 means TM & TE polarization).
Hello, I'm wondering to know if there is any way to calculate the transmitted electric field, which I guess that maybe it would be easier in time domain. I'm trying to calculate the transmission of certain pillar array structure with CST Studio. I have succeeded with COMSOL but I'm able to reproduce the same results, my guess is that the boundary conditions in CST are wrong. I hope you can help me with this.
To calculate transmitted wave you should set Zmin as "Open (add space)" boundary condition. Other boundary condition are the same as what I shown in the video.
This would be nice for the effects of a negative refractive index meta materials that absorbs an infrared beam. A meta material like a catalyst Bismuth ferrite. The refracted field will have a water splitting ultraviolet field, for producing a liquid-phase non equilibrium plasma.
@@EMSpectrumLab this is an oversimplified version of splitting of water. I have presented it to AI Co-Pilot was told to write a scientific paper and submit it to a University. I worked in an analytical Laboratory for 25 years and realized how daunting that would be. If you like, I can give you a paper, though less detailed, on it. I am 76 yo and not good health, but I will do my best to make it logical.
When you set number of Floquet modes, you can determine which mode is excited, TE, TM or both of them. In this structure, due to the symmetry both modes have the same results. I set 1 as number of Floquet modes, so only the result of TE mode was calculated.
@@EMSpectrumLab if I mention the floquet number to be two the results i am getting S11, S12, S21, S22. Then which I have to consider as the result for TM mode.
Hello sir，your are doing very well，but I cannot draw colormap after completing the parameter scan. The software reports an error. How to solve this problem?
If I don't have a metal backing and I wanted to consider both absorption and transmission for calculating RL, then while assigning boundary condition do I have use both zmin and zmax as open space? If so then I am getting 8 plots for S parameters, which should be considered as S11 and S12.
Yes, when you do not have a metal backing, you should have both Zmin & Zmax ports. For each port you should assign your desired number of excitation modes. If you set only 1 mode for both Zmin & Zmax you have 4 plots as results (S11, S21, S12 & S22).

Hello Sir , your tutorial is very interesting. I have a concern about the boundary conditions to be applied on a unit cell. I want to make a transmission metasurface with two phase states (0° or 180°) which means two cells with two possible phase states. Is the x and y condition with unit cell valid?
@@EMSpectrumLab The Unit Cell boundary condition virtually repeats the modeled structure periodically in two directions up to infinity, As I said, I want to do phase distribution with two possible states (0° or 180°) which means that I will have a disordered cell distribution on my metasurface (either a cell with a 180° phase shift or a cell with a 180° phase shift of 0°). Excuse me, but I am a bit confused
@@wilfridrm9679 Maybe I did not understand what you mean. For your purpose, you should draw whole structure with all unit cells. You cannot assign unit cell boundary. In this situation, I think so the boundary should be Open in both x & y directions.
Hello sir, ur video it’s very helping me out. but i wanna ask u, can this tutorial be implemented for an anechoic chamber at s-band frequencies ? i’m very interesting for learning this CST, thank u sir 👏🏻
In general, the absorbance is equal to A=1-R-T where R=|S11|^2 and T=|S21|^2 are the reflectance and transmittance, respectively. However, since the simulated metasurface has the ground plane, the transmittance and then S21 is zero. So, for simplicity I ignored adding second port to calculate S21 parameter.

hi
I think your metasurface is a polarization rotator, it is not an absorber if you can look at the cross reflection
Hi. No, it is not a polarization rotator. To demonstrate this point, simulate the metasurface for both TE and TM modes. You can see cross-reflection is zero.
I think you have forgotten to mention that your Z upper boundary was open (add space) yet you never set the space parameter or distance??
Yes, I didn't mention it but it was shown in the video. It is not required to set the distance, it will be set due to the wavelength automatically by CST.
How to calculate permittivity and permeability from it? Just pick s11 and s21 in result template? And choose floquet mode 2?
Yes, you can use "Result Templates" to extract permittivity and permeability. Floquet mode determines your incident polarization (1 and 2 means TM & TE polarization).
