Meta Optics Studio (MOS), a software package specifically designed for the creation, simulation, and optimization of flat meta-surfaces, these artificial structures are used to enhance light wavefront engineering, resulting in better focusing, phase correction, and removal of aberrations. MOS has a unique multi-platform capability and a novel patch-and-stitch approach, which enables designers to simulate a meta-optic that is 55,000x the wavelength of light in diameter, using modest high-performance computing resources, all within a week. The software can also optimize real-time shape and topology on the full-sized meta-optic for optimizing target performance.
