PlanOpSim for High Tech Accelerator Imec.istart

Visit PlanOpSim at Photonics West 2026 and come check out our latest demos and capabilities. We look forward to welcoming you at booth 2460.

We’re honored to see PlanOpSim Lieven Penninck Jonas Vandewalle featured in Optics & Photonics News! 🎉 The article, metaoptics Comes of Age, highlights the growing impact of metasurfaces and the role our simulation and design tools play in pushing this field forward.

1’000’000’000 meta atoms 🔬 Designing Large-Area Optical Metasurfaces: A Scaling Challenge 🔬 Metasurfaces have unlocked new possibilities in optics, enabling ultrathin lenses, holograms, and beam shaping. But when it comes to large-area design, things get tricky

PlanOpSim has been selected as a finalist for the 2024 SPIE Prism Awards, and we couldn’t be more thrilled about this remarkable achievement. For the second year in a row!

For any technology to breakthrough and wide adaptation you need scalable, stable, and high quality production you need a PDK. PlanOpSim releases the first public PDK that is compatible with the manufacturer’s process to gain scalability, reliability and manufacturability.

Meet PlanOpSim 22-24 April 2026 at OPIE26 in Yokohama, Japan.

PlanOpSim is excited to announce that its CEO Lieven Penninck will present an Invited Paper, co-authored with Thales Research and Technology’ Sébastien Héron, at the upcoming SPIE Photonics Europe 2026 conference, taking place in Strasbourg, France. The presentation is scheduled for 2025-04-16 and will highlight the benefits of the co-optimization of metaoptics and refractive optics in infrared optical design.

Join us at SPIE Europe 12-16 April 2026 in Strasbourg, France. Lieven will present a paper on Hybrid meta-surface lens system for long wave infrared applications and give a product demonstration on metaoptics design using PlaOpSimSW.
