PICWave Features
Overview
- Efficient optical circuit simulator
- Time-domain travelling wave (TDTW) optical model
- Advanced active model
(option) for simulating semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) and laser
diodes including DFB lasers, tuneable lasers, ring lasers
- Supports multiple transverse modes, e.g. for polarisation
diversity studies
- Wide variety of instruments - measuring optical power,
wavelength, current, carrier density, threshold and more
- Wide variety of
analysis tools - plotting optical and power spectra, eye diagrams,
RIN spectra, dispersion spectra, LI curve fitting etc.
- Integrated high performance fully vectorial 2D+z Finite
Difference mode-solver
- Arbitrary time domain input signals controlling optical
power, optical wavelength, drive voltages, drive currents
- Integrated grating solver - real and gain gratings
- Import passive models from FIMMPROP or other
rigorous 2D/3D electromagnetic simulator (wavelength dependent scattering matrix),
e.g. import AWG model
- Material database system
