-To get focused source we can use plane waves summation method.+To get focused source we can use plane waves summation method ​as published in Ref. [1]. This is based on decomposition of the ideal focused beam onto a set of plane wave with appropriate angles and phases.

-Layered source+Layered source ​is a special source conditions suitable for materials with infinitely extending layers (e.g. thin films) as published in Ref. [2]. In our implementation the layers have to be laterally oriented in xy direction, so they have normal in z direction. The material can be formed by N layers in z-direction (in present implementation only dielectric and non-absorbing). Incident wave however can cross the sample at angle as well.

 +Finally, some of the sources can be also altered after they are set, e.g. to change the source profile.
 +This is the case of LTSF and TSF (in z direction) where we can multiply the plane wave entering the computational domain by a Gaussian to get a slightly diverging Gaussian beam.
