Photon Design | 556 followers on LinkedIn. Photon Design has been providing state of the art simulation software to the photonics research and industry since 1992. 

We offer a very wide range of simulation tools for a large number of applications ranging from the modelling of laser diodes and photonic integrated circuits (PIC) to rigorous Maxwell equation solvers for the simulation of optical components.

We have long running experience in photonics design and modelling and in numerical methods, so feel free to get in touch if you would like to discuss your modelling needs!

After years of development, we are proud to announce that OmniSim will soon feature a new 2D/3D FETD (Finite Element Time Domain) Engine which will complement its existing FDTD Engine, and will bring unparalleled speed and efficiency for the modelling of plasmonics: 10x to over 100x faster than FDTD! If you would like to see how FETD could help with your plasmonic simulations you can come and meet us in booth 622 at OFC in San Francisco, or simply get in touch by phone or email. http://lnkd.in/dARiauZ

Here at IPC Rome we’ve been demonstrating FIMMPROP’s newest expansion at our stand: allowing us to simulate FULL ring resonators and entire PIC components with our market leading EME engine. Learn more about Multi Topology FIMMPROP on our website and reach out to ask for a demonstration or trial. Website: https://lnkd.in/eD_DjYJ3

How is Photon Design Being Used? In their recent publication, the University of Maryland used FIMMPROP to create a 2x2 MMI with a subwavelength grating (SWG). Their results show excellent agreement between their experimental results and FIMMPROP’s simulation. Author Xiheng Ai writes about his experience building the SWG MMI: “ The subwavelength grating MMI we investigated has hundreds of sections. These sections are not periodic so each section has to be modelled individually. It is nearly impossible to build and optimize the design manually. So we use the MATLAB script to command FIMMWAVE so it can draw the model for us. The commands are discussed in the FIMMWAVE manual for both MATLAB and PYTHON. For each of our optimization iteration, the new model can be built within 1 minute.” You can find Xiheng and the group’s full published work here: https://lnkd.in/eBe7q6HH

Photon Design at ISLC 2024 It’s been fantastic to hear the world's leading minds in lasers come together here in Orlando this week and show how our software is right at the centre in helping to drive development. Thank you to those who stopped by our exhibition booth to learn more about how we can help in your work. If we missed the chance to speak with you then please reach out through the contacts on our website: https://lnkd.in/emtH_BEy Hoping to join you again in Tampere 2026!

Photon Design at ECOC 2024 Thankyou to all of you who visited our exhibition booth in Frankfurt last week for many great conversations about our exiting industry and how our software is driving it!

It was great to attend ECIO in Aachen last week, one of the World’s longest running conferences on this subject – going now for over 40 years. Marin Soljacic presented a very interesting talk on how silicon can be made to emit light. A metallic grating is deposited on top of the silicon and a high energy electron is shone across the surface of this grating. At certain energies the electron can induce oscillations in the currents which will give rise to EM radiation at optical frequencies. This can be used to create an LED-like source or even a laser. Efficiencies close to 100% are in principle possible.

We're excited to attend ECIO next week in Aachen! You can visit our booth in Aachen University's 6th floor and we look forward to hearing the great ways our software is being put to use. ECIO is Europe’s longest-running and premier conference on integrated optics - bringing together leading researchers not only from Europe but Worldwide. This conference always presents some very high standard research and we are looking forward to hearing about the latest innovations in photonics at ECIO.
