Optiwave software can be used in different industries and applications, including Fiber Optic Communication, Sensing, Pharma/Bio, Military & Satcom, Test & Measurement, Fundamental Research, Solar Panels, Components / Devices, etc..
OptiSystem is a comprehensive software design suite that enables users to plan, test, and simulate optical links in the transmission layer of modern optical networks.
OptiSPICE is the first circuit design software for analysis of integrated circuits including interactions of optical and electronic components. It allows for the design and simulation of opto-electronic circuits at the transistor level, from laser drivers to transimpedance amplifiers, optical interconnects and electronic equalizers.
OptiFDTD is a powerful, highly integrated, and user friendly CAD environment that enables the design and simulation of advanced passive and non-linear photonic components.
OptiBPM is a comprehensive CAD environment used for the design of complex optical waveguides. Perform guiding, coupling, switching, splitting, multiplexing, and demultiplexing of optical signals in photonic devices.
OptiFiber The optimal design of a given optical communication system depends directly on the choice of fiber parameters. OptiFiber uses numerical mode solvers and other models specialized to fibers for calculating dispersion, losses, birefringence, and PMD.
Emerging as a de facto standard over the last decade, OptiGrating has delivered powerful and user friendly design software for modeling integrated and fiber optic devices that incorporate optical gratings.
OptiConverge is a collaborative integration framework that seamlessly combines two or more Optiwave products (e.g., OptiSystem, OptiSPICE, OptiFDTD, etc.) and other third party products into unified solutions. Designed to streamline complex workflows, it empowers users to achieve their goals faster by harnessing the collective power of our trusted Optiwave tools.

The cutoff wavelength for any mode is defined as the maximum wavelength at which
that mode will propagate. The cutoff wavelength λc of LP11 is an important
specification for a single-mode fiber. The operation wavelength must be greater than
the cutoff wavelength of LP11 to operate the fiber in a single mode regime. λc can be
determined analytically for some specified fiber profiles. For a general fiber profile, a
highly accurate numerical mode solver should be involved to calculate cutoff
wavelength. OptiFiber currently implements two different approaches for finding the
cutoff and respectively two different values can be calculated for each mode:
A “Theoretical” cutoff value
This is the wavelength, above which the given mode cannot propagate, even in short
and unperturbed samples of this fiber. This value is calculated using the general
numerical mode-solvers of OptiFiber. It is defined as the wavelength, above which the
Eigenvalue problem formulated for the current fiber design and for the given mode
does not have real solutions.
An “Estimated ITU-T” cutoff value
These values are obtained by emulating the actual experimental cutoff
measurements, as described in the ITU-T / TIA / EIA recommendations (see [ITUT[
23]] in the Technical references). It employs a macrobending loss formula [J. Sakai
and T. Kimura, 1978 [26]] applicable to any mode in arbitrary-index profile optical
fibers. The ITU-T/EIA-455-80A recommendation is formulated only for the cutoff of
LP11.
