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...

Our Optical Engineering Services

VirtualLab™ provides you with a powerful toolbox to solve your optical engineering tasks. The  latest research in optical engineering is considered and implemented in VirtualLab™ for your use. However, you may be interested to outsource your optical engineering problem to world leading experts in the areas of diffractive optics, micro-optics, and all types of wave-optical simulation of optical systems. In that case the team at LightTrans is ready to solve your optical engineering problem.

In a typical optical engineering scenario a couple of free consulting meetings take place before LightTrans suggests you a procedure to solve the optical engineering task of concern. If you wish to perform most of the work yourself, VirtualLab™ can be customized  to answer your specific needs. Accompanied by  training which LightTrans team members are going to give this package enables you to handle your engineering task. In other cases it can be wise to do the first steps in the engineering project together with LightTrans team members in a joint engineering project. Finally, numerous customers ask LightTrans to undertake the complete engineering work. In case your problem requires the development of a new technology, LightTrans is often willing to  run the risk and to provide you with a license of our solution. Independently of your specific choice, we will enable you to solve your engineering task as part of your innovation network.

LightTrans offers optical engineering services in diffractive optics, micro-optics, and all types of wave-optical simulations of optical systems. This includes modeling and design of systems for:

The system transforms the Gaussian intensity distribution of a single mode fiber into two top hats with different power density. The top hats are used for testing of optoelectronic devices. LightTrans was responsible for the whole development of the system from the first communication about the customer's need to the final delivery and installation at the customer’s production facility.
