Description

Synopsys OptSim stands out as a highly acclaimed simulator for photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and fiber-optic systems, empowering engineers to effectively design and refine photonic circuits and associated systems. With its cutting-edge algorithms for both time and frequency domains, it provides a dedicated photonic environment that ensures precise simulation results. OptSim can operate independently, complete with its own graphical user interface, or be integrated within the OptoCompiler Photonic IC design platform for enhanced functionality. When combined with OptoCompiler, it allows for electro-optic co-simulation alongside Synopsys PrimeSim HSPICE and PrimeSim SPICE electrical circuit simulators, offering a seamless experience with the PrimeWave Design Environment that facilitates advanced simulations, analyses, and visualizations, including parametric scans and Monte Carlo methods. Additionally, the software is equipped with a comprehensive array of libraries containing photonic and electronic components, as well as various analysis tools, and is compatible with a wide range of foundry process design kits (PDKs), making it an invaluable resource for engineers in the field. Its versatility and depth of features make Synopsys OptSim a crucial tool for anyone involved in photonic design.

Description

Polaris-M is an advanced software for optical design and polarization analysis, created by Airy Optics, Inc., that seamlessly merges ray tracing techniques with polarization mathematics, enabling 3D simulations, handling of anisotropic materials, and diffractive optics. This software, which has its roots in over ten years of research at the University of Arizona's Polarization Laboratory before being licensed to Airy Optics in 2016, boasts a vast library of more than 500 functions tailored for various optical tasks, including ray tracing, aberration evaluation, and the manipulation of polarizing elements and diffractive optics. To run Polaris-M, users must have Mathematica, which provides an extensive macro language and robust algorithms for tasks such as graphics rendering, computer algebra, interpolation, neural network functions, and numerical analysis. Comprehensive documentation accompanies the software, featuring accessible help pages that can be activated with the F1 key, guiding users through explanations, inputs, outputs, and practical examples. The user experience is further enhanced by this rich repository of resources, ensuring that users can effectively navigate and utilize the software's extensive capabilities.
