Creating a new coordinate system for a silicon orientation, Piezoresistive Effect

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi there,

I'm working in a piezoresistive simulation (Silicon Single-Crystal), as I understand, the silicon material of my sensor is oriented in the <110> direction, so I need a local coordinate system to fulfill that condition.

I would like to know how can I get that local coordinate system in COMSOL v4.2, I have already done that in V3.5a using a Silicon Orientation with x-axis direction vector ([1 1 0]) and xy-plane direction vector ([-1 1 0]). But I don't know how to obtain the same result in v4.2

Thanks in advance if somebody helps.
