Hi everyone,

. Engineers use it to generate non-intuitive shapes, such as waveguide crossings with near-perfect transmission, by combining gradient-based optimization with Maxwell's equations. Mesh Order Management Ansys Lumerical Knowledge Base and Community Forum The

The forum's most "deep" or recurring advanced topics include: Solver Convergence & Stability FDTD Solutions : Discussions related to the use

  1. FDTD Solutions: Discussions related to the use of FDTD Solutions, including setup, simulation, and post-processing.
  2. MODE Solutions: A section dedicated to MODE Solutions, Lumerical's software for designing and simulating optical modes in photonic structures.
  3. CHARGE Solutions: Discussions on CHARGE Solutions, a tool for simulating charge transport and carrier dynamics in semiconductor devices.
  4. Scripting and Programming: A section for users to share scripts, discuss programming techniques, and get help with automating tasks.
  5. Applications and Research: A forum for users to share their research, discuss applications of Lumerical software, and explore new ideas.

Lumerical’s scripting language (LSF) and its Python API are powerful but have a learning curve. The forum is filled with code snippets for automating sweeps, extracting S-parameters, and post-processing complex data sets. 3. Direct Access to Support Engineers
