Is there a way to model and analyze a system using physical optics calculations instead of a ray trace?

OpticStudio does have physical optic capacilities. However, beam propagation and the options for setting up propagation analysis is a fairly complex subject, which has been documented in our Knowledgebase in more detail than can be provided here. For beam propagation, see the following Knowledgebase articles:

1. “Using Physical Optics Propagation (POP)…” (the full 3-part series)

2. “Exploring Physical Optics Propagation
