Abstract :
We report on efficient CAD software (MODAL) that we are developing to specifically model long wavelength systems. Beam mode analysis which includes both aberration and truncation scattering using fast SVD methods allows sufficiently accurate and computationally highly efficient representations of a propagating beam for real time design feedback purposes.
