Concentric circles

[gdsts]

Hello Nazca Team,

I want to draw concentric circles with certain line thickness, constant turning space and gradually increasing/decreasing turning space as in this figure (middle one). I couldn’t figure out how to do it and would be glad if you can help me.

Thank you in advance,

Gozde

Dear Gozde,

You can use Nazca Polygon objects for that, which you feed with “normal” polygons [(x1, y1), (x2, y2), … ]. There is a helper module nazca.geometries with methods which generate polygons for various shapes to make life easier.

import nazca as nd
import nazca.geometries as geom

for i in range(10):
    points = geom.arc(radius=10*i, width=8-0.5*i, angle=40+10*i, N=50)
    nd.Polygon(points=points, layer=1).put(0)

nd.export_plt()

With some extra rotation:

for i in range(10):
    points = geom.arc(radius=10+10*i, width=8-0.5*i, angle=40+10*i, N=50)
    nd.Polygon(points=points, layer=1).put(0, 0, i*15)

nd.export_plt()
