Modeling Periodic Structures in RF and Optics

About the Event

Periodic structures play an important role in optical, microwave, and antenna engineering. Some well-known examples include optical gratings, photonic crystals, metamaterials, frequency-selective surfaces, and phased array antennas. 

Join us for this webinar to learn about the functionality for modeling periodic structures in the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and its add-on RF Module and Wave Optics Module. We will discuss topics such as handling periodic ports, diffraction orders, and Floquet periodic boundary conditions, as well as visualizing the polarization state and multiple unit cells.

Key Learnings for Attendees:

• Understand the role of periodic structures—such as optical gratings, photonic crystals, and metamaterials—in optical, microwave, and antenna engineering applications.
• Explore how to model periodic structures using COMSOL Multiphysics® and its RF Module and Wave Optics Module to simulate real-world electromagnetic behavior.

Who Should Attend: 

• Engineers, researchers, product developers, and consultants
• Professionals involved in the design, simulation, and analysis of devices and processes
• Individuals working with electromagnetics, RF (radio frequency), and wave optics
