Photodiode Detector

This example demonstrates the initialization and visualization of a Photodiode detector using PyMieSim.

Importing the package: PyMieSim

from PyMieSim.single.detector import Photodiode
from PyMieSim.units import AU, degree
from PyMieSim.single import plot_system

Initializing the detector

detector = Photodiode(
    NA=0.3 * AU,  # Numerical Aperture
    cache_NA=0.2 * AU,
    sampling=500 * AU,  # Number of sampling points
    gamma_offset=0 * degree,  # Gamma offset in degrees
    phi_offset=0 * degree,  # Phi offset in degrees
    polarization_filter=None  # No polarization filter applied
)

Plotting the detector
