"It’s amazing how fast the Flexcompute numerical solver runs. Some simulations that we expect would take days to do, it can do in just 30 minutes. This allows us to simulate many different random configurations, different system sizes, and different structural parameters to see whether we can get three-dimensional localization of light."

"One of the key advantages of Tidy3D for my work is that it makes full-wave simulations of large, irregular, and non-Hermitian structures practical."..."This is particularly important for my work on disordered systems, where the simulation domain can contain thousands of scatterers rather than a small periodic unit cell."
