RETICOLO software for grating analysis

Optics 2025-01-14 v4

Abstract

RETICOLO is a freeware that implements the rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) for 1D (classical and conical diffraction) and 2D crossed gratings. It operates under a MATLAB environment and incorporates an efficient and accurate toolbox for computing Bloch modes and visualizing the electromagnetic field in the grating region. As a spin-off, the Version V9 and the following ones include a toolbox for the analysis of stacks of arbitrarily anisotropic multilayered thin-films.
