Simulating Nano-Optical Scattering Efficiently
Simulating Nano-Optical Scattering Efficiently

Thu, Mar 13, 2025 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM EDT
The clever design of optical scattering characteristics in nanostructures has become a fundamental building block for breakthrough devices in high-speed telecommunication, biosensors, solar cells, AR/VR, and more. Accurately describing and predicting this behavior calls for full-wave simulations. Justus Bohn demonstrates how to easily set up a simulation model through an example that focuses on single-particle scattering. Furthermore, the discussion extends to typical nano-optical structures, such as diffraction gratings, metasurface deflectors, plasmonic structures, photonic crystals, distributed Bragg reflectors, and hyperbolic metamaterials. Presented by COMSOL.
