Additional information

Open rhombus.pro with Gmsh. The model will automatically compute the dispersion curves of Figure 3.16, p. 152 of Foundations Of Photonic Crystal Fibres[1], using a finite element formulation with Floquet-Bloch conditions[2]. You can double-click on any point in the dispersion curves to visualize the corresponding eigenmode.
