Models suspended Si

SAX models registered in PDK.models, evaluated at their default parameters. Plots show the transmission between optical ports over +-3 % of each model's centre wavelength.

bend_circular

Returns the S-matrix of a circular bend (straight-waveguide propagation).

Parameter Default
wl 3.8
radius None
angle 90.0
loss 5.0
cross_section 'xs_sus'

bend_circular

bend_euler

Returns the S-matrix of an euler bend (straight-waveguide propagation).

Parameter Default
