# Diagonal Components

ss: Medium describing the ss-component of the diagonal permittivity tensor. The ss-component refers to the in-plane dimension of the medium that is the first component in order of ‘x’, ‘y’, ‘z’. If the 2D material is normal to the y-axis, for example, then this determines the xx-component of the corresponding 3D medium.

tt: Medium describing the tt-component of the diagonal permittivity tensor. The tt-component refers to the in-plane dimension of the medium that is the second component in order of ‘x’, ‘y’, ‘z’. If the 2D material is normal to the y-axis, for example, then this determines the zz-component of the corresponding 3D medium.
