Cloud native EDA tools & pre-optimized hardware platforms
The CODE V MetaOptic Design add-on supports a significant advancement in optical technology by enabling the design of meta optical surfaces. These surfaces are thin, flat structures that can significantly enhance the performance and functionality of traditional lenses. Metalenses, like other diffractive elements, have the potential to become a powerful new tool in an optical engineer’s toolbox.
With the CODE V Meta Optic Design tool, you can combine ray tracing with electromagnetic field solvers to simplify the design of imaging systems that include both conventional optics and metalenses.
Utilize advanced metalens technology to enhance optical systems.
Use advanced modeling to apply intricate patterns of meta-atoms to surfaces.
Optimize metalens design and conventional refractive/reflective elements simultaneously.
With the MetaOptic Design add-on, users can leverage a sophisticated diffractive optic property modeling process within CODE V to efficiently design these complex surfaces. This capability opens new possibilities for creating more efficient, compact, and versatile optical systems. Contact us to get a demo of these examples.
1. Build meta-atom database
2. Perform ray-based design
3. Use CODE V error function (spot size, wavefront error, or user-specified error function)
4. Post processing and manufacturing
During the optimization, you can vary the metalens design parameters, radii of both surfaces of the lens, the thickness of the lens, and the distance between the lens and the metalens -- all at the same time. The optimizer balances the system performance for wavelengths and field angle combinations.
In this example, the starting point of the design has a plane parallel plate and uniform distribution of the meta-atom design parameters. The final design has been optimized for transverse ray aberration and transmission.
You can export CODE V meta optic data to MetaOptic Designer, an independent design tool that features an inverse design algorithm.
You can export your CODE V meta optic design to a GDSII file, which is required by manufacturers.
This tool is an optional add-on for CODE V and is available for an additional fee. It also requires 六合彩直播开奖 Common Licensing for activation.
