) -> photonforge.Component

Create an S bend connecting 2 compatible ports.

Args

  • port1: First port to be connected. The port can be specified as a Port or as a tuple including a Reference, the port name, and the repetition index (optional, only for array references).
  • port2: Second port to be connected.
  • euler_fraction: Fraction of the bends that is created using an Euler spiral (see Path.arc). If None, defaults to 0.
  • technology: Component technology. If None, the default technology is used.
  • name: Component name.
  • model: Model to be used with this component. If None a WaveguideModel is used.

Returns

Component with the route, including ports and model.

Example

>>> component = pf.parametric.route_s_bend(
...     port1=pf.Port((0, 0), 180, "Strip"),
...     port2=pf.Port((20, 5), 0, "Strip"),
...     euler_fraction=0.5,
... )
