Researchers expand simulation tool to help design the next generation of photonic and ...

Researchers at SUTD and NUS have extended the particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation method to model quantum effects in condensed matter, enabling single-platform simulation of light-electron interactions across entire devices and at nanoscale detail simultaneously. The open-source framework could accelerate design cycles for photonic integrated circuits, optical sensors, lasers, and quantum devices by reducing virtual prototyping time before fabrication.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Photonics & Optics and Quantum Computing. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.
