Introducing Harold
Design a variety of multi-layer graded epitaxy lasers with simulations that account for a large (and growing) number of physical effects. Find a cross section’s gain spectra and export to companion tool PICWave for full 3D time domain laser / amplifier simulations.

From 1D Epitaxy...
Deploy our growing database of materials to build epitaxy structures with multiple quantum wells / dots or add your own experimental data to define your epitaxy structure.
From 1D Epitaxy...
...To 2D Simulations...
Deploy Harold simulations in 2D both along the direction of propagation (1D +Z) or examining the optical, electrical, and thermal physics in the cross section (Harold XY).
...To 2D Simulations...
...To 3D Laser Devices
Export gain and absorption spectra results to our companion time domain circuit simulator PICWave to build 3D devices such as modulators, amplifiers, and laser diodes.
...To 3D Laser DevicesExpansions to Harold
Make use of market leading functionality with EigenMode Expansion simulations. Return 3D simulation results for passive PIC components and fiber geometries orders of magnitude faster than other popular simulation methods.
