Calculating Reflectance and Transmission using scattering boundary conditions?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi:
I'm trying to simulate gold nanowire structures with normal light incidence. The light is generated by a scattering boundary condition at the top of the geometry(E0=Ey=1V/m, k=-kz) and at the bottom there's another scattering boundary condition. I know there is not automatic post processing for scattering boundary condition as for ports. So is there a way to calculate the reflectance and transmission coefficients with scattering boundary conditions?
Thanks a lot!
