2018
- Re-calculation feature:
This new post-processing function allows the user to simulate and get the beam state in any plane inside a component. This re-calculation can be processed on any component of the optical system. It enables to follow the output beam of a multipass pass amplifier. For beam filtering application, this feature allows to determine and track image planes.
- New Fast Fourier Transform libraries:
Those optimized algorithms lead to fast simulation of the Fresnel diffraction. Calculation times are reduced significantly. The calculation time can be divided by a factor of two in some applications. This saves time and cost in designing a complex optical system.
