Data driven design of optical resonators [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Optical devices lie at the heart of most of the technology we see around us. When one actually wants to make such an optical device, one can predict its optical behavior using computational simulations of Maxwell's equations. If one then asks what the optimal design would be in order to obtain a certain optical behavior, the only way to go further ...

Neural Lithography: Close the Design-to-Manufacturing Gap in Computational Optics with a 'Real2Sim' Learned Photolithography Simulator [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We introduce neural lithography to address the 'design-to-manufacturing' gap in computational optics. Computational optics with large design degrees of freedom enable advanced functionalities and performance beyond traditional optics. However, the existing design approaches often overlook the numerical modeling of the manufacturing process, which can ...
