Not able to run compute_cross_section_modes about femwell

[simbilod]

We wrote a plugin to gdsfactory to directly mesh Components, see

https://gdsfactory.github.io/gdsfactory/notebooks/meshing/01_intro.html
https://gdsfactory.github.io/gdsfactory/notebooks/meshing/02_2D_xy_mesh.html
https://gdsfactory.github.io/gdsfactory/notebooks/meshing/03_2D_uz_mesh.html

You can convert any GDS cell into a gdsfactory component
https://gdsfactory.github.io/gdsfactory/_autosummary/gdsfactory.read.import_gds.html?highlight=import_gds

The last thing you'd need to do is define LayerStack to properly tell the importer what structure the layers correspond to:

Can you try

conda install slepc4py=*=complex* -y

?

I'll add it to the docs

This worked (I am using mamba env)

👍 I'll close this issue once I added the instruction to the docs.

also quick question - does femwell work on any klayout component directly without re-defining it in python?

Great- thanks!
