What is Metal and PML boundry condition in Comsol?
How can i specify metals and insulators ?

A metal boundary in Comsol is a boundary condition that can be applied to a surface in a simulation to represent the presence of a metal material. This boundary condition is commonly used in electromagnetic simulations to model conductive materials such as metals.
A Perfectly Matched Layer, or PML, in Comsol is a special type of boundary condition that is used to absorb outgoing waves in a simulation. It is commonly used in electromagnetic simulations to prevent reflection at the boundaries of the simulation domain.
To apply a metal boundary condition in Comsol, first select the surface or boundary where you want to apply the condition. Then, go to the physics settings for the simulation and under the boundary conditions tab, select the metal boundary condition from the drop-down menu.
Yes, it is possible to use a PML and metal boundary condition together in a Comsol simulation. The PML can be applied to the outer boundaries of the simulation domain to absorb outgoing waves, while the metal boundary condition can be applied to specific surfaces within the simulation domain to model conductive materials.
The use of a PML and metal boundary condition in Comsol can improve the accuracy and reliability of simulations, particularly in electromagnetic simulations. They can help reduce reflections at boundaries and better represent the behavior of conductive materials, resulting in more accurate results.
