Creating Quiet Quantum

Cadtronics logo

CADtronics is microscopic simulation software that can be used to optimize materials and structures for various optoelectronic and spintronic applications with reduced noise. It uses highly accurate electronic wave functions of any layered semiconductor structure (quantum well or superlattice) to predict its optical response, calculate the gain of laser active regions, or evaluate the efficiency of light-emitting devices.

CADtronics computes fundamental material properties of SLs, QWs, and related structures, which are prerequisite for device manufacturers to design and optimize devices based on these structures. With CADtronics you can identify suitable SLs and QWs for the desired wave length range.
