# Node Design
|
|
Now that we can do all the cool things ex. presets and such, it's time to think more design.
|
|
|
|
## Categories
|
|
**NOTE**: Throughout, when an object can be selected (ex. for GeoNodes structure to affect), a button should be available to generate a new object for the occasion.
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**: Throughout, all nodes that output floats/vectors should have a sympy dimension. Any node that takes floats/vectors should either have a pre-defined unit (exposed as a string in the node UI), or a selectable unit (ex. for value inputs).

- Mediums
|
|
- **NOTE**: Mediums should optionally accept a spatially varying field. If not, the medium should be considered spatially uniform.
|
|
- **NOTE**: Mediums should optionally accept non-linear effects, either individually or summed using Non-Linear / Operations / Add.
|
|
- **NOTE**: Mediums should optionally accept space-time modulation effects, either individually or summed using Non-Linear / Operations / Add.
|
|
|
|
- Library Medium
|
|
- **NOTE**: Should provide an EnumProperty of materials with its own categorizations. It should provide another EnumProperty to choose the experiment. It should also be filterable by wavelength range, maybe also model info. Finally, a reference should be generated on use as text.

- Monitors
|
|
- **NOTE**: Some/all should have dropdown to choose between a single (aka. steady-state) monitoring at the end of the simulation, or a continuous / animated (aka. movie) monitoring over the course of the whole simulation.
|
|
|
|
- **TODO**: "Modal" solver monitoring (seems to be some kind of spatial+frequency feature, which an EM field can be decomposed into using a specially configured solver, which can be used to look for very particular kinds of effects by constraining investigations of a solver result to filter out everything that isn't these particular modes aka. features. Kind of a fourier-based redimensionalization, almost).

### Structures
|
|
|
|
All should support
|
|
- Medium
|
|
|
|
TriMesh should support:
|
|
- EnumProperty defining whether to select an object or a collection.
|
|
- Medium
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**: When several geometries assigned to the same medium are assigned to the same `tidy3d.GeometryGroup`, there can apparently be "significant performance enhancement"s (<https://docs.flexcompute.com/projects/tidy3d/en/latest/_autosummary/tidy3d.GeometryGroup.html#tidy3d.GeometryGroup>).
|
|
- We can and should, in the Simulation builder (or just the structure concatenator), batch together structures with the same Medium.
