All releases of LaserCalc


Release Notes: Various code cleanups and optimizations now lead to 30% calculation speedup and less memory consumption. This version supports the import of ZEMAX (R) work files. Many bugs have been fixed.


Release Notes: A new optical element (TickLens) has been added, which simulates a "real" optical lens with a front and back (curved) surface as well as a glass material. Furthemore, a material catalog has been added with a list of commonly used optical glasses. Dozens of details have been improved (particularly the plotting system) and many bugs have been fixed.


Release Notes: This version introduces a new plot system and the possibility to save and load your workbench. As always, many bugs have been fixed.


Release Notes: This release comes with an improved optic editor. Two new modules (Resonator Stability Analysis and Data Variation Analysis) have been added. Optical paths can now be nested. As always, many bugs have been fixed.


Release Notes: A significantly improved optimization algorithm in the ModeMatcher module has been implemented. Many bugs have been fixed.


Release Notes: This version comes with a new GUI concept that allows a more flexible way of working. Further path and cavity parameters are calculated. The cavity analysis module can now calculate linear and ring resonators. A documentation update has been started (but is not yet finished).


Release Notes: This is the first stable version. Minor feature enhancements have been implemented. A user manual has been added.


Release Notes: A bug leading to a segfault if a new Optic Path was called has been fixed. A progress bar for matcher has been added. A bug with plotting the last point in a path has been fixed. Display of element names in the path plot has been added. Display of calculated distances by the matcher in the path plot has been added. A German translation has been added. The application now looks for the correct path of the glade files. There are fixes in the build system.
