Photon Design
was started in 1991 to provide professional quality software to the photonics industry. At
this time most laboratories and companies were developing their own in-house software - a
strategy that clearly provides maximum flexibility but that has now become too expensive
for all but the largest companies to fund. We have been growing our product range
steadily since 1991 and now provide a wide range of photonics tools off the shelf,
encompassing both active and passive photonics components. Much to our pride, our products
are now in use by a wide number of telecoms companies and laboratories around the world,
helping to develop the next generation of telecoms components. With our extensive
experience in modelling we are also able to develop custom solutions for your special
requirements based on components we already have and are happy to add modifications to our
standard products We have a team of the brightest people dedicated to developing new
ways to solve even the most difficult of your theoretical problems. Photonics software,
perhaps more than almost any other, provides enormous challenges to the theoretitian and
modeller, and also the greatest scope for innovative solutions. Much of our software is
based on novel theory that has been developed in house often with significant improvements
over published know-how - yes we would love to publish some of the cleaver things we do,
but alas commercial realities forbid! We are also aware that cleaver methods are not
enough in themselves for our customers - good ideas must be packaged well so that the
complexities of the methods are hidden as best as possible - a well designed user
interface can save you the user a hours or days. It also makes sense for us too - if it is
easy to use then it will need less expensive Technical Support from us!
