Hi Forum,
I really like some of the stuff that is coming with Ansys Zemax OpticStudio 24 R2.02, so I thought I`ll make some noise about them here:
- Stress Birefringence in STAR
 - STAR GRIN ray tracing improvements - Up to 50% faster analyses for complex systems.
 - Support for modeling spatially varying gratings via the Lumerical Sub-Wavelength Model (LSWM)
 - Export Ray Footprint to CAD
 - Composite Surface can now be converted to non-sequential mode

Have a good day,
