Abstract :
A design framework is introduced to expedite the design of novel material structures. We apply an adjoint-accelerated space mapping that takes advantage of adjoint sensitivities of the fine model. We show a sensitivity-enabled design framework that easily implements both space mapping and direct optimization. A flat lens and a π-shaped resonator are designed.
