OpenLight, a newly launched foundry company, has introduced an open silicon photonics platform with integrated lasers
Synopsys will receive an aggregate initial share delivery of approximately 523,000 shares
Gemma Church explains how LightTools, from Synopsys, makes tissue modelling more accessible to design next-gen diagnostics.
This paper presents the most up to date compilation of research and data available in the literature regarding the optical properties of human tissue. The relevant optical, biological, and measurement details are presented to illustrate the necessary considerations that should be observed when modeling human tissue in LightTools. It also describes how this information has been incorporated into a new Human Tissue Utility. This utility aims to take some of the guesswork out of creating User Materials that model biological tissues.
Synopsys has released version 9.1 of its LightTools illumination design software
