Metalens-Based Endoscope Simulation with Ansys Optics

Overview

Join us as we walk through the design of an ultra-miniature optical imaging system, starting with phase profile optimization of the metalens, proceeding through full-wave nanophotonic simulation, and culminating in system-level performance evaluation inside a realistic biological scene

This session will highlight the entire workflow and interoperability between ray-tracing, nano-scale modeling, and photorealistic system simulation tools to achieve high-performance, manufacturable miniature optical designs.

Register now to explore how Ansys’ integrated optics tools can help you bring ultra-compact imaging systems from concept to reality.

What Attendees Will Learn

• Understand how to optimize the phase profile of a metalens using ray tracing and merit function tools in Ansys Zemax OpticStudio.
• Learn how to model nano-structured metalenses with over six million meta-atoms using Ansys Lumerical FDTD and cloud-based HPC resources.
• Discover how to translate target phase data between OpticStudio and Lumerical to construct a full metalens based on a parameterized assembly group approach.
• See how to simulate realistic image acquisition performance of the full endoscope system inside biological environments using Ansys Speos.
• Gain insights into the end-to-end workflow for exporting phase data and far-field intensity maps across simulation platforms for system-level validation and fabrication readiness.
