HowtoUse ?

Hello, we would be interested to use your software, but after installation of got sources following
the README, we don't understand howto start a simulation, it seem some files are missing, or may
be we haven't understood the process...Could you help ? We would like to compute Scat, abs, and Ext crosssections
for a gold sphere ( in 2D...) with a gaussian pulse ?
Thanks in advance
Regards

Not so much an issue

Hi,

I wasn't sure how else to contact you. I've found your excellent repo and am embarking on a similar project for my masters in engineering. I had a couple questions regarding material definitions that I hoped you could answer. My biggest problem seems to be invoking plasmonic behavior in the 'gold' material. Here are two images
one of a dielectric material index=2

and the second is gold

much like you have defined, taken from the meep.materials library and 'scaled'. Same test, same time step. It looks like the EM waves pass right through the gold but we get these waves propagating along the dielectric circumference/interface.
My email is [email protected] if it's easier to discuss there.

Thanks & kind regards,
Eoghan
