Star Photonics® offers software, consultation and services for optical and electro-optical devices in the chip level. We specialize in Integrated Optics and Microelectronics for Silicon Photonics platform. The company has proven experience in simulating, fabricating and characterizing common devices such as MZI, ring and Fabry-Pérot resonators.

Our main software, Doctor Modes, Lord PICS & Circuits King, can simulate thermo-optical and electro-optical devices from the waveguide level to entire circuit/network level:

Doctor Modes™ offers 3D Full-Vector exact solution (Galerkin method) for the supported modes of various waveguides cross-sections such as Slab, Channel, Rib/Strip, Circle, Ellipse and Trapeze. Both single-guide and parallel-guides (directional coupler) can be fully simulated and analyzed. 

Lord PICS™ provides simulations for common optical and electro-optical circuits such as MZI, Ring and Fabry-Pérot resonators/modulators. Dispersions, Temperature and Voltage effects can be accounted. 
Coupling coefficients (parallel & curved sections) behavior can be fully analyzed separately.

Circuits King™ is an Optical Interconnect simulator. Components such as bus, resonators, light sources and detectors can be integrated in the layout to form large networks required in many applications, e.g., Deep Learning (Training networks), optical programming and processing, beam shaping, and WDM (modulators, switches) arrays. Effects applied via electrode such as Thermo-Optical, Electro-Optical and phase-changing are supported in the simulation.

In Addition to linear integrated optics, we also specialized in nonlinear optics and experienced in Four-Wave Mixing (FWM), Quasi-Phase Matching (QPM) and cavity resonances. We also master Two Photon Absorption (TPA), Free Carriers presence and other nonlinear effects, in particular in silicon platform.
