Hi,

I'm looking to calculate the band structure of an unconventional 3D
photonic crystal which has a simple cubic arrangement. The repeated unit
cell is an open octahedron and I would like to build this structure such
that the edges of the octahedron are made of dielectric elliptical
cylinders. As such, I was wondering whether an elliptical cylinder type
geometric object has been added to the most recent version of MPB. If not,
I would appreciate any advice you can offer with regards to building an
open octahedron unit cell.

Thank you for all your help!

Best,
Viki
