Features

• Native 64-bit application (32-bit version also available)
• Fully vectorial solution of (near) arbitrary 3D waveguides
• Variety of fast, robust waveguide mode solvers, each optimised for planar waveguides, cylindrical fibres, diffused waveguides or arbitrary geometries such as photonic crystal fibres
• Complex versions for waveguides of complex refractive index, including metals
• Very accurate solutions even for "difficult" problems such as devices with very thin layers, weakly coupled structures and devices near cut-off
• Comprehensive material database
• Parameter scanners for rapid design
• Friendly interface with wide choice of editors for designing rectangular, circular or diffuse waveguides or as a set of geometrical shapes
• Full diagonal tensor anisotropy supported
• Bend mode solvers
• Accurate also for high order modes
• Extensive command-line interface, support for scripting with Python and MATLAB
• Kallistos optimisation
• Link to ray-tracing tools FRED and Zemax
