We attempt to analyze different theories for the calculation of antireflective nanostructures. How to choose an appropriate theory and the reason is considered in given conditions. Based on our analysis, effective medium theory (EMT) is unsuitable for nanostructures with a dimension (period) much smaller than the incident wavelength, as higher order diffraction waves other than the zeroth order diffraction propagate here. Rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) can only be used in rigorously periodic conditions because the boundary conditions must be periodic, no matter the dimension of period. Finite element method (FEM) can be used in any conditions but with an excessive computation consumption..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
