Accurate simulation is essential for developing and optimizing integrate\d photonic components. In this session, we will demonstrate the capabilities of Optiwave’s finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) tool by walking through the setup, execution, and analysis of a polarization beam splitter model sourced from literature. The device itself serves as a representative example with published results allowing the focus to be on the practical use of advanced simulation features — from geometry setup and material definitions to results interpretation. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how OptiFDTD can be applied to a wide range of passive optical device designs, enabling faster development cycles and greater confidence in performance predictions.
