Sources of Grating Toolbox
For most grating simulation sessions, the incident field is the ideal plane wave. You can select the wavelength and polarization, as well as non-polarized light. In addition to the near field analysis, the VirtualLab™ Grating Toolbox includes two more important features:
- Gratings analysis for general incident waves, e.g. a Gaussian beam.
- Simulation of grating dispersion for arbitrary power spectra which can be defined for any source.
-
- Local polarization changes if a sinusoidal grating is illuminated with a 45°-polarized light.
