This case compares a local FDTDX result with pinned reference data generated by Tidy3D.

Technical schematic associated with 2D dielectric cylinder forward-T vs Tidy3D

Representative radiating-field structure.#

What is exercised#

Forward flux ratio with/without eps=2.25 cylinder (r=0.25µm). Loose tol for staircasing.

This case runs at its declared full benchmark resolution (resolution factor 1.0).

The table is rendered from progress.json; it is not a hand-written success claim. For metrics that report an error directly, the “observed” column repeats that error and the reference column is the acceptance threshold.
