Optical Ring resonators

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello there!

I'm new to COMSOL multiphysics. I was using LUMERICAL MODE for my simulations and everything. It was very easy to use but they have some problems too. So I decided to use COMSOL but the problem is after starting to use i find it really difficult to use. I want to create ring resonator and study its spectral properties. Can anyone help me where can I study the basic thing about COMSOL?

Hello Jayakrishnan,

There are quite a number of resources you can draw upon to learn how to use COMSOL Multiphysics regardless of your specific application.

First, of course, is the software's documentation, which you can access through the File > Help > Documentation menu. It includes both theory manuals and tutorial manuals. The tutorial models in question are also available already set up inside the software via File > Application Libraries.

The COMSOL website also offers many tutorials of a wide range of topics in the Video Gallery. You will also find longer archived webinars here.

COMSOL offers many instructor-led training courses.

Finally, I strongly recommend the Learning Center videos to get a solid foundation for your modeling with COMSOL: they cover the entire process of setting up a model from start to finish, and are a great resource for self training.

Now, regarding your specific application, this blog post seems spot on.

Best,

Jeff
