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...

Presentation of VirtualLab™ at IODC, Jackson Hole, Wyoming, USA. (June 08, 2010)

Our distributor in the United States, Jenoptik Optical Systems, Inc., is exhibiting at the International Optical Design Conference (IODC) in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, USA starting June 13 2010. As part of their exhibition the optical software VirtualLab™ is being presented.

An invited talk on "Unified Optical Modeling" is given by Frank Wyrowski (University of Jena) during the conference on Wednesday June 16 2 p.m.
The short abstract of the talk reads as follows:
Unified optical modeling aspires to place all significant modeling techniques into the same framework in order to enable a smooth combination of them in a modeling task. This theoretical modeling concept is called field tracing.
