Enhancements of 3-D Grating Simulation

(August 27, 2010)

The simulation of 3-D grating structures is being considerably enhanced in the forthcoming version of VirtualLab™. Real 3-D grating structures are used more and more extensively for the design of optical components. The rigorous simulation techniques provided by VirtualLab™ give an insight to the op...

VirtualLab™ 4.8 Released

(July 09, 2010)

VirtualLab™ and VirtualLab™ Advanced 4.8 have been released. VirtualLab™ 4.8 extends the flexibility of 2-D grating simulations. Using so called stacks, the period of the structure can be defined by sequences of optical interfaces, including grating, conical, aspherical, sampled and programmable int...

Grating Efficiency Analyzer

The Light View displays the near field of a grating. The Grating Efficiency Analyzer assesses the efficiency of a grating at any order. The values are monitored in a table and illustrated in a polar coordinate graph.

The efficiencies and diffraction angles of a grating shown as polar diagram and as intensity distribution one meter behind the grating.
