CoherentOptics Description

A program for the simulation of Laser illuminated optical systems and for the construction of Optical filters CoherentOptics is based upon a program made for Classic Mac called FFTVision that was written over a period of years for use in the research program of Professors Jeffrey Davis and myself at San Diego State University. You can see how we have used the program by consulting the optics literature. This new program is written from scratch for the Cocoa environment in Objective C, and is still used in the optics research as SDSU. This program can read and write the two major file types of the old program.CoherentOptics is a program for constructing optical filters and for simulating the passage of coherent light of one color and polarization at a time. This simulated propagation through an optical system, uses Fresnel optics, but no ray tracing.CoherentOptics is capable of handling several documents at the same time. Each document and its associated windows are color coded to somewhat decrease confusion. What's New in This Release: · A bug in the direct propagation option for Power PC has been corrected. There is an option to speed up script execution by suppressing the flash of each icon. · This version computes in double precision "Fourier Transform" and "Direct Propagation" are multi-threaded, and should calculate much faster on an Intel Mac having multiple cores. · The "Big Window" is now easier to use since the upper left corner is used as the origin of its coordinates. · New script functions have been added to increase functionality.
