Do not run 100 simulations manually.

The best way to learn is to open the application, delete the default simulation region, and build from scratch. Use the built-in Example Library (File > Open Examples). Simulate a simple dielectric slab waveguide first. Once that works, add a grating. Once that works, try a plasmonic structure. lumerical fdtd tutorial

Let us apply the theory. You are designing a Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) waveguide (220nm thick Si on 2um SiO2). Do not run 100 simulations manually
