Description

S4 Simulation Tool

S4 (Stanford Stratified Structure Solver) is a frequency domain code to solve layered periodic structures. Internally, it uses Rigorous Coupled Wave Analysis (RCWA; also called the Fourier Modal Method (FMM)) and the S-matrix algorithm. S4 was developed by Victor Liu of the Fan Group in the Stanford Electrical Engineering Department.

  1. Exploring Thin Film Interference Colors through Simulation

    04 Nov 2014 | | Contributor(s):: Tanya Faltens

    This resource will guide instructors and independent learners through the process of simulating the reflections off of a thin film using the S4: Stanford Stratified Structure Solver simulation tool.  Examples of a freely standing thin film (a soap bubble) and a thin film of silicon dioxide...
