Demo File: Anti-reflection Coatings
This demo file provides a custom form with which one can easily design anti-reflection coatings. You simply enter the following in the form:
- choice of materials (substrate and layer structure)
- requirements: maximum three wavelength, for which the reflectance should be minimized, a bandwidth, angle of incidence and polarization
- numerical parameters: maximum number of random trials (Monte Carlo method) etc.
The first diagram shows the reflection spectrum of the optimized structure:
A second diagram shows the reflectance as a function of wavelength and angle of incidence:
As we are using a custom form, both the form and the underlying calculations can be modified by the user according to specific requirements.
