Synopsys illumination design software models polarizing elements with birefringent materials
Version 9.0 of LightTools illumination design software includes new tools to model and analyze polarizing elements with birefringent materials, which are increasingly used in advanced applications such as AR/VR headsets and biomedical instruments. New charts allow designers to assess the polarization state and orientation and identify how to maximize flux.
