PICWave is software for designing photonic integrated circuits (PICs) that include active devices such as semiconductor lasers and SOAs.
PICWave is a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) design tool which brings together: an advanced laser diode and SOA model, a powerful photonic integrated circuit (PIC) design and simulation tool, a flexible design flow environment. The combination of the laser diode and photonic integrated circuit design capability allows you to characterise any laser diode geometry and model photonic circuits that include both passive and active components.

basic information
PICWave's circuit simulator is ideal for studying the interaction of multiple optical components in a larger circuit. A circuit simulator allows you to model optical propagation in complex and large devices, that can be even metres in length. PICWave's time-domain model allows it to combine active and passive circuit elements, which can include waveguide components (MMIs, Y-junctions, tapers etc.), DBR gratings, SOAs, modulators (QCSE and silicon), photodiodes, RLC circuits etc.

Detailed information
-
A laser diode and SOA model PICWave includes a detailed active model allowing the simulation of various types of SOAs (amplifiers) and laser diodes, including Fabry Perot lasers, hybrid silicon lasers, DFB lasers, tuneable lasers, ring lasers etc. It can also model modulators and photo-detectors. PICWave overlaps the laser model with an optical circuit and electric circuit simulator.
