Abstract

Metalenz is a spin­off company of Harvard University that works on finding newer and better designs for lenses. To prevent manufacturing designs that might not work, they first want to run computer simulations on their designs. This research focuses on a possible method for these simulations using a test case as design. It turns out that the simulations work, but that they are slow. Therefore, a technique to make the simulations faster, Multi-trace boundary integral equations, is researched. This technique manages to change simulations that take a week to finish into simulations that take a couple of hours to finish. Before Metalenz can start using the simulation techniques, they should be tested for more complicated cases, to make sure they still
work when more factors are at play
