What's New
The 2023 R2 release includes new features in Ansys Lumerical INTERCONNECT for new photonic element models and enhanced performance when modeling quantum photonic integrated circuits.
Enhancements in qINTERCONNECT
Improved performance enables double the number of channels or frequencies with the same simulation run time. New application example: Spontaneous Four-wave mixing in microring resonator
New Non-Linear Waveguide Primitive Model
This model enables the modeling of nonlinear waveguides made with LiNbO3 and supports short pulse and CW pump operations and tuning with periodic poling.
Resources
Verify Multimode, Bidirectional and Multi-Channel PICS with Ansys Lumerical INTERCONNECT
Experience a depth of features and workflow for photonic integrated circuit simulation with Lumerical INTERCONNECT. Available workflows accelerate design time and improve manufacturing outcomes. INTERCONNECT contains an extensive library of passive and active building blocks and supports many foundry PDKs with calibrated compact models.
Key Features
Perform photonic integrated circuit simulations with analyses in the time and frequency domain.
- PIC Simulation and Design
- EDA and PDA Interoperability
- Statistical Analysis
- PIC Element Libraries
- CML Development and Distribution
With its hierarchical schematic editor, use INTERCONNECT to design and simulate photonic integrated circuits. INTERCONNECT includes frequency domain analysis, transient sample mode simulation, and transient block mode simulation. It includes sophisticated visualization and data analysis tools with support for parameter sweeps and design optimization.
Simulate and optimize your designs with familiar EDA design tools and workflows to accelerate design time and improve reliability.
Perform corner analysis to model the effects of process variation on circuit performance. Execute Monte Carlo analysis to assess circuit performance and yield by accounting for process variations
INTERCONNECT contains an extensive standard library of passive and active optoelectronic building blocks, along with supplementary elements that enable simulations and analyze results. It includes two library extensions:
- An element library extension for laser modelling
- An element library extension for advanced system modelling including sophisticated fiber, amplifier, FEC encoding and equalization models
INTERCONNECT, along with Ansys Lumerical's device level tools, provides an infrastructure that supports the development and distribution of compact model libraries (CMLs) for PIC simulation and design. Typically, a CML is built upon a combination of experimentally measured data and accurate component-level simulation results using Lumerical’s device-level photonics tools.
