Upcoming VirtualLab Fusion Webinars

In order to adapt to different time zones worldwide, we will hold the webinars twice (all times CET):

Diffractive Lenses | 13 January | 10:00 & 18:00
Fiber Optics | 3 February | 10:00 & 18:00

Flat Optics with VirtualLab Fusion

Diffractive Lenses: Concept, Modeling, Design, and Fabrication Data

13 January | 10:00 & 18:00 (CET)

In this webinar we introduce the concept of diffractive lens and generalize it to the usage of digital holographic surfaces. We briefly compare it with the metalens and Fresnel-type lens approaches. Then we turn to the use of diffractive lenses in design by presenting design workflows in VirtualLab Fusion. This includes the combined design of diffractive lenses and freeform surfaces. In another workflow we combine design in Zemax® OpticStudio® with modeling in VirtualLab Fusion.

Our Speaker


Prof. Dr. Frank Wyrowski

Frank Wyrowski is the President of LightTrans. He is responsible for R&D and the technical roadmap of VirtualLab Fusion. In 1999 he co-founded LightTrans and in 2014 Wyrowski Photonics. Also, he holds a professorship at the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena and is head of the Applied Computational Optics Group.

New Features in VirtualLab Fusion for Fiber Optics

Fiber Coupling, Fiber Mode Sources, and Propagation Through Fibers

3 February | 10:00 & 18:00 (CET)

VirtualLab Fusion comes with new features for the modeling and design of systems for fiber optics. Based on linearly polarized (LP) modes and Gaussian-Laguerre solver techniques, we present:

  • The fiber source, which emits customer-selected weighted fiber modes,
  • The fiber coupling efficiency detectors, which provide the efficiency of the power transferred into multi-mode and single-mode fibers,
  • The fiber component, which enables the propagation of electromagnetic fields through fibers.
