Anisotropic Dielectric

  If I define frequency dependent isotropic dielectric's with loss's, if I then use these media as elements of a 3-D anisotropic dielectric tensor, are the loss's modeled? or is only the relative permittivity modeled?

 

Cheers,

Patrick

    Hi pmcardle

     

    Yes, the losses defined for the dielectric will also be included in the 3D anisotropic dielectric tensor definition and correctly modeled by FEKO.

     

    In general, FEKO would give you an error when a certain set of input parameters are not valid or supported for a certain solver or setup.

    Hello, is there any update for this question? I am trying to compute fields in infinite planar layered structure which contains anisotropic medium.

    H @Mazin Mustafa,

     

    It's possible to use FEM combined with planar multilayer substrate:

    Maybe this solves your problem?
