Fabry–Perot Resonator
Application ID: 84411
A Fabry-Perot resonator is one of the fundamental optical devices and has a broad range of applications. A few examples are that it can be used to measure length, frequency/wavelength or to filter specific spatial modes. This model uses the Beam Envelopes Interface in the bidirectional formulation to efficiently compute mode shape and reflection/transmission properties of a macroscopic Fabry-Perot resonator.
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the Grille des Spécifications and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.
