Conformal FDTD Mesh Technology Delivers Subcell Accuracy
In recent years, photonic design has focused on ever smaller devices expected to operate over broad wavelength ranges, and that make use of highly dispersive materials. Emerging photonic technologies including plasmonics and silicon photonics exploit dispersive material characteristics and modern semiconductor manufacturing techniques to provide new functionality to the optical designer. While such technologies open the door to greater innovation, the combination of dispersive, high index contrast materials and nanoscale feature sizes have in turn placed extreme demands on commercially available photonic design tools.
