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...

Components of Grating Toolbox

The Grating Toolbox includes both surface and index-modulated gratings. The fundamental surface gratings include sinusoidal, rectangular, triangular and saw-tooth gratings. The additional customized surface grating permits you to specify any type of surface with sampled data. Likewise, the toolbox features a customized index-modulated grating. A holographic volume grating is also included, which allows you to specify a volume grating with multiple interference plane waves. Each grating component offers you a selection of suitable propagation techniques.
