Our goal is to deliver the most valuable and practical solution in the market.
An integratred workflow and UX for speady, more intuitive design. Metacell: Optical design of nanostructures using a full solution of Maxwell's equations. Meta-Component: Design of meta-surfaces, meta-lenses, components and holograms using powerful optimization methods. Enabling new users with this new technology faster.
Meta-Component: Design of meta-surfaces, meta-lenses, components and holograms using powerful optimization methods saving crucial time.
Integrate your meta-surface components into optical systems with 3rd party ray-tracing and CAD software. Full system design is a prerequisite to capture the full advantages of Meta Optics.
PlanOpSim is available via cloud or local. Cloud requires only a webbrowser. Local gets you access to specific installation support.
A tool is only a tool. Specific expertise, design examples, technical support (PhD), PlanOpSim Wiki are available to get you and keep you up to speed.
Large Area Design can be challenging. PlanOpSim created unique ways to increasing the area size with a workable time investment and keeping the error size low ( see ODA )
Optical measurement setups for light scattering, Photometric characterization of (O)LEDs and Characterization of thin films, determination of refractive indices, birefringence and absorption.
PlanOpSim’s primary expertise is numerical modelling and design of thin film and other optical components. Next to PlanOpSim’s own tools, we use third party tools as required for these tasks.
The PlanOpSim team assist your engineers with testing, design and prototyping of various kinds of photonic and optical applications where Optical Metasurfaces can make a clear difference via dedicated contract R&D.
PlanOpSim teams advises, introduces partners, etc. and helps you helps solve these types of questions;
You want to know what is the most robust design.
You want to know what is the best fabrication methodology for your specific application.
You want to be brought in touch with fabricators the right way.
PlanOpSim has now more than 5 years of experience with finding perfect matches fitting for your protoype, project or high volume application.
PlanOpSim can create specific software that models the parameters you need, for the applications you are focussing on. PlanOpSim can deliver custom features, interfaces and even entire models tailored to your wishes. In the past we have delivered the following algorithms for specific analyses:
Light emission and micro-cavity effects in birefringent materials: liquid crystal lasers and OLEDs
Algorithms for calculating light extraction and efficency of OLEDs
Identification of plasmon modes for material characterization and loss analysis

PlanOpSim's software offerings have immense potential to revolutionize the optics and photonics industry, particularly in the design and simulation of meta surfaces and metalenses. The speed, flexibility, and ease-of- use of their software have enabled our research group at Kwangwoon University to create faster, larger, and more accurate designs in a time-efficient manner.
From the outset of our engagement in early 2024, I have been consistently impressed by PlanOpSim's commitment to innovation and their dedication to providing excellent R&D results. During our R&D project with the PlanOpSim, their team demonstrated not only ambition but also a readiness to develop highly innovative products. Furthermore, they deliver excellent practical advice next to scientific insights.
In the Summer of 2022 (...) we started trialing the PlanOpSim Software. Throughout this engagement their team has demonstrated their ambition and readiness for development of highly innovative products as well as delivering excellent technical support. One additional example of how they are standing out from their competition is that their support is both quick and gives not only insight into the software but allows for deep scientific discussions.
