PowerSplitterModel

class photonforge.PowerSplitterModel(t=2**-0.5, i=0, r0=0, r1=0, ports=None)

Analytic model for a 3-port power splitter.

\[\begin{split}S = \begin{bmatrix} r_0 & t & t \\ t & r_1 & i \\ t & i & r_1 \\ \end{bmatrix}\end{split}\]
Parameters:

  • t (complex | Buffer | _SupportsArray[dtype[Any]] | _NestedSequence[_SupportsArray[dtype[Any]]] | bool | int | float | str | bytes | _NestedSequence[bool | int | float | complex | str | bytes]) – Transmission coefficient. For multimode ports, a sequence of coefficients must be provided.

  • i (complex | Buffer | _SupportsArray[dtype[Any]] | _NestedSequence[_SupportsArray[dtype[Any]]] | bool | int | float | str | bytes | _NestedSequence[bool | int | float | complex | str | bytes]) – Isolation coefficient. For multimode ports, a sequence of coefficients must be provided.

  • r0 (complex | Buffer | _SupportsArray[dtype[Any]] | _NestedSequence[_SupportsArray[dtype[Any]]] | bool | int | float | str | bytes | _NestedSequence[bool | int | float | complex | str | bytes]) – Reflection coefficient for the first port. For multimode ports, a sequence of coefficients must be provided.

  • r1 (complex | Buffer | _SupportsArray[dtype[Any]] | _NestedSequence[_SupportsArray[dtype[Any]]] | bool | int | float | str | bytes | _NestedSequence[bool | int | float | complex | str | bytes]) – Reflection coefficient for the remaining ports. For multimode ports, a sequence of coefficients must be provided.

  • ports (Sequence[str] | None) – List of port names. If not set, the sorted list of port names from the component is used.

Notes

For multimode ports, mixed-mode coefficients are zero (not included in the result). Dispersion can be included in the model by setting the coefficients to a 2D array with shape (M, N), in which M is the number of modes, and N the length of the frequency sequence used in the S matrix computation.
