The Synopsys Photonic Solutions team wishes you a safe and happy summer!
This summer, we hope you can take time to relax, enjoy yourself, spend time with family and friends, and balance your work and personal life.
We are pleased to announce a new application note you can access on demand, as well as exciting events coming up in the fall. Read on for more details!
New Application Note: Hollow Antiresonant Fibers with Reduced Attenuation
For decades, scientists have been interested in hollow-core optical fibers (HCFs) for their low non-linear response, low latency and lower dispersion compared to solid fibers. A new HCF design – the hollow antiresonant fiber (HAF) -- surrounds the hollow core with a microstructure cladding composed of tubes attached to the jacket glass. Our finite element mode solver, FemSIM, can calculate the mode for HAF structures, find the attenuation loss, bending loss, and design a desired structure at needed band area.
Save the Date: Photonic Symposium – September 21-22, 2021
Photonics – the generation, processing and detection of light – is crucial to meeting evolving internet, healthcare, mobility, and security needs. Driven by data communication applications, photonics is moving rapidly from the laboratory to mainstream. Join our Photonic Symposium in September to hear directly from industry experts about the latest photonic developments, best practices, and future outlook.
We will review the PIC landscape, including market analysis, vision of hyper-scalers, chip suppliers, disruptive applications, and future developments. Day 2 of the symposium will feature hands-on, application-based training on Synopsys photonic IC tools. Stay tuned for the event invitation coming soon! Or, email photonics@synopsys.com to pre-register.
