Documentation

The in-application help, one tree per code family, shared topics rendered once. Written by the author of the software; the text describes the codes through 2018, and later features have pages of their own.

Modal Collinear and Modal Conical

The modal-method codes for one-dimensional gratings: True Modes Method and Fourier Modal Method (RCWA), best suited to lamellar profiles, other profiles sliced into layers; classical and conical mounts.

31 topics

Modal Crossed

The Fourier modal method for biperiodic (crossed) gratings, with the normal-vector field for convergence.

31 topics

Chandezon Collinear and Chandezon Conical

The C-method codes for one-dimensional gratings with smooth profiles: classic and extended methods, classical and conical mounts.

28 topics

Chandezon Crossed

The C method extended to biperiodic (crossed) gratings with smooth profiles.
