tidy3d.CornerFinderSpec

class CornerFinderSpec

Bases: Tidy3dBaseModel

Specification for corner detection on a 2D plane.

Parameters:

• attrs (dict = {}) – Dictionary storing arbitrary metadata for a Tidy3D object. This dictionary can be freely used by the user for storing data without affecting the operation of Tidy3D as it is not used internally. Note that, unlike regular Tidy3D fields, attrs are mutable. For example, the following is allowed for setting an attr obj.attrs['foo'] = bar. Also note that Tidy3D` will raise a TypeError if attrs contain objects that can not be serialized. One can check if attrs are serializable by calling obj.json().

• medium (Literal['metal', 'dielectric', 'all'] = metal) – Find corners of structures made of medium, which can take value metal for PEC and lossy metal, dielectric for non-metallic materials, and all for all materials.

• angle_threshold (ConstrainedFloatValue = 0.3141592653589793) – A vertex is qualified as a corner if the angle spanned by its two edges is larger than the supplementary angle of this threshold value.

• distance_threshold (Optional[PositiveFloat] = None) – If not None and the distance of the vertex to its neighboring vertices is below the threshold value based on Douglas-Peucker algorithm, the vertex is disqualified as a corner.
