Optical Fibers
FIMMWAVE and FIMMPROP can design a large variety of fiber components, allowing you to calculate the modes of the fibres and their dispersion, or modelling propagation through complex fibre-based devices.
Examples:
PICWave is a powerful tool for modelling Fibre Bragg Gratings, which will allow you to model the effect of dispersion, apodisation and chirp. You can also model periodic FBGs with FIMMPROP.
Examples:
You can use can use FIMMWAVE and FIMMPROP to model multi-core fibres, including cross-talk modelling in straight and bent MCFs, or simulating their performance as power splitters.
Examples:
You can design and simulate photonic crystal fibres very easily in FIMMWAVE, and study propagation through z-varying PCF structures with FIMMPROP.
