Question When I click on any cell in the spreadsheet, the whole cell gets highlighted. If I want to change only a part of the value in the cell, I have to click in the command line. Is there a way to get around this? In Excel, I can double-click my mouse or Press [F2] key to accomplish this. ...
Question I am using OSLO-EDU and I am having trouble understanding how to perform an optimization in OSLO. I think it would help me if you can demonstrate a very simple optimization task: How do I use OSLO to optimize the radius and conic of a mirrored surface to solve for a specific set of foci...
Question How do I set up a cylindrical lens in OSLO? If I want the orientation of the cylinder of the lens to be oriented in the orthogonal direction, how do I do that? Synopsis Setting up a cylindrical lens in OSLO Solution For purposes of discussion, we will assume that you want to make surface 3...
Question Amit Itagi "Hi, I am looking for a numerical technique to model light propagation through a particular device. The device is a waveguide lens. I have a planar dielectric waveguide with a thickness on the length scale of a wavelength. But the width is on the length scale of mm's. The...
Question Can I run OSLO from other programs or the DOS command line? Is there a good way for OSLO to exchange data with other MS Windows programs such as Matlab, TracePro, MS Word, MS Excel, ...etc.?
Question I am trying to design multilayer structure LEDs and photodetectors which consist of various epitaxial films. Can I design an optical multilayer structure with OSLO Premium? How about the refractive indices of different materials? Do we have to find them or does your program have its own...
Question When I plot the Ray Intercept Curve (RIC) Report Graphic, I notice that the axes of many of the individual graphs do not have labels on them. What are the labels on the plotted Axes? Synopsis Labels for graphs in Ray Intercept Curve report graphics Solution The Ray Intercept Curve Report...
Question I want to perform the overlap integral of the OSLO coupling efficiency calculation on a more complex mode structure than a fibre, so I would like to output the amplitude and phase of the point spread function to a file. The PSF is calculated using an FFT, so basically I would like to...
Question Why doesn't my C function work in CCL? Synopsis Problems using C syntax in CCL Solution CCL is a subset of C. If your function uses pointers, structs, unions, casts, or is case-sensitive, it won't work.
Question Please tell me how to include the effective focal length (EFL) in the error function as referred in OSLO 5.4 Optics Reference Chapter 7, Page 266 (A design project)? Synopsis Including the effective focal length in the error function Solution In rev 5.4, the focal length is not explicitly...
