Introduce TidyGrad - The Easiest to Use Inverse Design Tool Ever
What is inverse design? Inverse design is a method where you can automatically generate photonic devices that fulfill a performance metric and design criteria that you specify through code. One first defines the objective function to maximize with respect to a set of design parameters (such as geometric or material properties) and constraints. This objective is maximized using a gradient-based optimization algorithm, yielding a device that satisfies the performance specifications, while often displaying unintuitive designs that defy human intuition...
