The RSoft Photonic Device Tools comprise the industry’s widest portfolio of simulators and optimizers for passive and active photonic and optoelectronic devices, including lasers and VCSELs. We are integrated with Synopsys optical and semiconductor design tools for streamlined, multi-domain co-simulations:
Synopsys CODE V and LightTools products for rigorous modeling of nano-textured optical structures and diffraction analysis
Synopsys Sentaurus TCAD products for simulations of complex optoelectronic devices.
Key Features
Highly accurate algorithms allow for rapid virtual prototyping reducing the need for costly and lengthy physical prototyping increasing productivity and decreasing time-to-market.
Assists in the discovery of new products by creating “what if” product scenarios.
Each algorithm engine shares a common CAD interface; the software can utilize multiple RSoft packages without having to import designs from one software to the next.
Scripting can be done with any programming language.
Includes automated parameter scanning via MOST.
Each simulation engine is licensed and sold separately, allowing users to choose only those that are relevant to their work.
Enhanced Metalens Design
Synopsys continues to enable efficient metalens development with updates to MetaOptic Designer, a unique inverse design tool that takes user-specified design criteria and generates metalenses/metasurfaces for optimal performance. MetaOptic Designer was a finalist in the 2023 Prism Awards recognizing industrial innovation in photonics.
