Fully Automated Inverse Design Tool for Metalenses/Metasurfaces
Synopsys presented a technical paper on metalens design at META 2022, the 12th International Conference on Metamaterials, Photonic Crystals and Plasmonics. The paper, titled ¡°A Design Automation and Simulation Flow for Lens Systems Containing Multiple Metasurfaces,¡± was developed and presented by Dr. Chenglin Xu, RSoft Photonic Device Tools product manager. The paper highlights a metalens design automation flow using inverse design techniques and automatic optimization based on specified target functions. The performance of the optimized metalens system can be validated by different simulation approaches. The presentation is available on request by emailing photonics@synopsys.com.
