FIMMWAVE

A powerful waveguide mode solver

Options

Additional modules to FIMMWAVE

In addition to the base module you can choose among a large range of add-ons.

FIMMPROP

FIMMPROP is our 3D propagation tool based on EME (EigenMode Expansion).

Complex Engine

Use this add-on to include the complex versions of all our mode solvers. You will be able to solve metallic structures and to include gain and absorption in your devices. Also allows you to introduce PMLs and model leakage or radiation.

FEM Solver

Our finite element mode solver, offered as an add-on.

Kallistos

Kallistos is an advanced automatic optimisation tool capable of automatically improving existing designs of photonic devices with minimum intervention from the user.

Stress Solver

Allows you to model the effect of stress on your waveguide and the resulting change of its modes. Supports thermally-induced stress fields.
