AbstractMesh#

class optika.materials.meshes.AbstractMesh[source]#

Bases: Printable, Shaped

An interface describing the supporting mesh for a thin-film filter.

Attributes

`chemical`	The chemical makeup of the mesh material.
`efficiency`	The fraction of light that is not blocked by the mesh.
`pitch`	The density of the mesh in lines per inch or equivalent.
`shape`	The array shape of this object.

Methods

`__init__`()
`to_string`([prefix])	Public-facing version of the `__repr__` method that allows for defining a prefix string, which can be used to calculate how much whitespace to add to the beginning of each line of the result.

to_string(prefix=None)#

Public-facing version of the __repr__ method that allows for defining a prefix string, which can be used to calculate how much whitespace to add to the beginning of each line of the result.

Parameters:: prefix (None | str) – an optional string, the length of which is used to calculate how much whitespace to add to the result.
Return type:: str
