Photon Design to expand UK team
Photon Design, a developer of photonic simulation CAD software, is expanding its Oxford-based team in the UK, to include application engineers. This is to support growth and meet the increasing demand for its wide range of photonic simulation products.
Dominic Gallagher, CEO of Photon Design, said: "Our application engineers will assist with technical and product support. As experienced software super-users, they have a comprehensive understanding of customer design challenges, offering expert support with simulations. The role will help accelerate the design process, improving performance and boosting productivity for customers. It will also create a structure where feedback is more easily captured to inform Photon Design’s R&D department, to ensure we remain an innovator at the forefront of the worldwide, photonic simulation industry.”
Photon Design will initially apply this approach to their laser simulation products, PICWAVE and HAROLD. By allowing engineers to concentrate on design and product enhancements, new product introductions will be accelerated.
The laser simulation products which have already benefited from this approach include the new Quantum Dot gain model for entire laser waveguide cross sections; high-power VCSELs, for multi-junction devices; and extending quantum dot simulation functionality to include a full, 3D, time domain.
