SimuLase™

by Non Linear Control Strategies (NLCSTR)

SimuLase™ is the first software tool that allows a broad audience to take full advantage of the latest advances in semiconductor theory that have revolutionized device modeling over the past decade.
SimuLase™’s fully microscopic models output correct fundamental characteristics such as absorption/gain and PL-spectra and, additionally accurate carrier losses due to radiative and Auger processes.

The predictive fit-parameter-free nature of the approach offers a fundamentally improved approach to design, analysis, and optimization.

A simple, fast, and quantitatively predictive design of new devices.

A substantial reduction of required design/growth/ re-design iterations.

An unprecedented insight in the characteristics of new or existing devices.

Precise quality control using non-destructive testing.

A free demo version of SimuLase™ is available.

Easy-to-use

Easy-to-use GUI to set up heterostructures, check level positions, mode confinement, reflection, etc.

What you need

Edge-emitters, top-emitters, lasers, LEDs, V(E)CSELs, electro-absorption modulators, sensors/absorbers- if it is based on a heterostructure SimuLase is the modeling tool for it.

Various Materials

Various material choices (AIGaAsP, GaInNas, etc.)

Variable Structure Design

SQM, MQW, SL, GRINSCH…

Easy Setup

Includes SimuLase Designer for easy set-up and variation of the structure design.

Education Discount

The educational version is available at a reduced price.

See a description of typical real life examples of how SimuLase can be used to design and analyze, e.g., edge-emitting devices and VECSELs.
