Choosing The Right Photonic Device Design Software
By Synopsys - 10 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

There are many factors to consider before deciding which software to use for photonic device design. To narrow the field, it can be helpful to ask these key questions as you investigate and compare software functionality. • Does the software provide enough flexibility to model and analyze products that offer the best solution to likely and possible design goals? • Is the simulation ca... » read more

CogniFiber: Photonic Computing
By Zoya Hasan - 03 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Computing with light has many advantages. It's fast, cheap, and it doesn't generate much heat. But it's also difficult to make it work, and it has a number of challenges that are specific to photonics. CogniFiber, an Israeli startup, says it has solved many of these issues. The company uses photonics over fiber, and it has introduced a glass-based chip. “We use light as a data conveyor ... » read more

Machine Learning-Based Optimization Of Chiral Photonic Nanostructures: Evolution- And Neural Network-Based Design
By Fraunhofer IIS/EAS - 08 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Chiral photonics opens new pathways to manipulate light-matter interactions and tailor the optical response of metasurfaces and -materials by nanostructuring nontrivial patterns. Chirality of matter, such as that of molecules, and light, which in the simplest case is given by the handedness of circular polarization, have attracted much attention for applications in chemistry, nanophotonics and ... » read more
