Defining Simulation Region

Hi,
I am trying to get the 3D Temperature Distribution for a 3D nanoscaled structure, where I use a plane wave source as a the heat source. For that I use the "Microwave Heating Interface".
The structure I am using is a highly periodic structure: cylinders with same height and material placed on a plane with equal distances between. And the plane source is placed above one of the cylinders. So I thought it would be wise, just to simulate around the cylinder, which is below the source and use some symmetric (or periodic) boundary conditions on the edges of the simulation region. Is it a good idea?
How can define such a simulation region? An example tutorial would be very nice.
Thank you,
Bartu

Dear Bartu,
the best tutorial here is really to follow the tutorial scatterer on substrate.
It will tell you everything you need to know when you want to sactter a wave at a perioidc unit cell.
