The Application Gallery features COMSOL Multiphysics® tutorial and demo app files pertinent to the electrical, structural, acoustics, fluid, heat, and chemical disciplines. You can use these examples as a starting point for your own simulation work by downloading the tutorial model or demo app file and its accompanying instructions.
Search for tutorials and apps relevant to your area of expertise via the Quick Search feature. Note that many of the examples featured here can also be accessed via the Application Libraries that are built into the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and available from the File menu.
A 3D silicon waveguide is set up with rib and slot configurations. The meshing includes physics-controlled mesh, with the number of longitudinal mesh elements set to 50 to visualize the wave oscillation. The detailed discussion of the model setup is discussed in the blog post: "Silicon ... Read More
This model represents index guided photonic crystal fiber as discussed in the J. D. Joannopoulus book. The dispersion diagram of the fundamental and higher order modes matches well with Chapter 9, Figure 4. The hole radius is varied from 0.23[um] to 4.69[um]. J.D. Joannopoulus, R.D. ... Read More
These examples demonstrate how to compute the total reflection, transmission, and absorption of light when a plane wave, at optical wavelengths, is incident upon a dielectric slab with a thin metal coating. Three examples are included that show: An optically flat slab A slab with a ... Read More
This is a simple yet powerful simulation app for designing a two-dimensional reflective metalens. This metalens consists of a array of glass nanopillars on a metal substrate. Initially, the app determines the optimal grating parameters for a specific wavelength and calculates the ... Read More
The multipole expansion is a powerful tool for analyzing electromagnetic waves scattered by small objects. In the expansion, the scattered field is represented as a superposition of the fields created by a finite set of point multipoles. Each point multipole is connected to a unique ... Read More
This model showcases the broadband optimization for the Microstructured antireflective coatings that are modeled in the model (#99011). Following are the parameters that are optimized: Rectangular microstructure: Height and width of the rectangular microstructure. Pyramidal ... Read More
The design of antireflective coating plays an important role to increase the transmission of the infrared light that propagates through optical structures such as lens and windows. In this model, we showcase how different bulk structures such as Si and CZT that has the bulk ... Read More
This shows how a Gaussian beam incident on a periodic structure can be efficiently simulated. This could be applied to structured surfaces like metasurfaces or diffraction gratings. Because of superposition, only a single unit cell needs to be simulated. This can provide extremely ... Read More
