It’s amazing how fast the Flexcompute numerical solver runs,” Prof. Hui Cao said. “Some simulations that we expect would take days to do, it can do in just 30 minutes. This allows us to simulate many different random configurations, different system sizes, and different structural parameters to see whether we can get three-dimensional localization of light.”
