2019 News – Crosslight Software https://crosslight.com TCAD (Technology Computer Assisted Design) Tools For the Semiconductor Industry Tue, 17 Sep 2019 20:08:39 +0000 en-US hourly 1 v2019 Release Announcement https://crosslight.com/news-events/v2019-release-announcement/ Tue, 17 Sep 2019 20:08:39 +0000 https://crosslight.com/?p=1390 Crosslight is proud to announce new features & milestones for its upcoming v2019 release:

  • Improved speed of 2.5D and 3D vectorial microcavity solvers
  • Updated vectorial propagation model to support tapers in edge devices and 3D micro-lenses in microcavity vertical emitters
  • New modal Near Field to Far-Field (NF-FF) transformation based on full vectorial field analysis
  • Demonstration of fully-coupled optical simulation for a small VCSEL array (2×2 and 1×2)
  • New Color gamut plot based on calculated LED spectrum
  • New modern GUI based on Chromium and Node.js technologies
  • Improved Design of Experiments features in GUI: this new “AutoTCAD” feature replaces the old “Series” interface in SimuCenter
  • Improved material grading definition scheme for structures with repeated layers
  • Improved edge bending scheme in layer files
  • New AM modulation plot for lasers

This version will be released later this year, after final testing has been completed. Customers with an up-to-date maintenance contract can contact their local sales representatives if they wish to try these new features right away.
