RSoft Component suite 2016RSoft\’s Photonic Component Design Suite RSoft\’s Photonic Component Design Suite allows users to design and simulate both passive and active photonic devices for optical communications, optoelectronics, and semiconductor manufacturing. RSoft currently addresses both passive and active devices through two design suites: a Passive Device Suite and an Active Device Suite. Each suite includes a CAD environment, simulation engines, and an optimization utility.Key Features Highly accurate algorithms allow for rapid virtual prototyping reducing the need for costly and lengthy physical prototyping increasing productivity and decreasing time-to-market. Assists in the discovery of new products by creating \”what if\” product scenarios. Each algorithm engine shares a common CAD interface; the software can utilize multiple RSoft packages without having to import...
LightTools 8.4LightTools 8.4 delivers new modeling, simulation and expert features for all types of illumination system design.Hybrid Simulation Option In addition to forward and backward simulations available in previous releases, LightTools now also provides a hybrid simulation option specifically designed to deliver efficiency improvements for models with predominately scattering surfaces. To benefit from this new feature, models must exhibit specific characteristics. Ray trace efficiency for models that can benefit from a hybrid simulation can be significant. Hybrid simulations are useful for evaluating the illuminance and luminance on diffuse surfaces like luminaire and dashboard panels.
