"MODE Solutions has played a critical role in developing our silicon photonics technology.
Its ability to specify detailed waveguide geometries, material systems, boundary conditions,
intuitive user interface and extensive scripting capabilities make challenging design projects easy."
M. Webster, Lightwire, Inc.
"MODE's materials library allows us introduce any material we want in the simulation and the ability to import
fiber cross-sectional images makes it an easy task to get the simulation ready to run."
Prof. C. de Matos, Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie
"MODE Solutions allows me to accurately calculate the dispersive properties of photonic crystal
fibers. Inclusion of dispersive material properties via Sellmeier coefficients gives great comparison
with published specifications.
S. Bricker, Harris Corporation
"I got MODE Solutions up and running in no time at all ... the software is very intuitive with
excellent graphics. Impressive!
S. Bidnyk, Enablence
