PyNLO Reference#

Python Nonlinear Optics

PyNLO provides an easy-to-use, object-oriented set of tools for modeling the nonlinear interaction of light with matter.

Notes#

PyNLO is intended to be used with all quantities expressed in base SI units, i.e. frequency in Hz, time in s, and energy in J.

`pynlo.light`	Pulses of light in the time and frequency domains.
`pynlo.medium`	Optical modes in waveguides or other media.
`pynlo.device`	TODO: pulse shaper, grating compressor, prism compressor
`pynlo.model`	Models for simulating the propagation of light through optical media.
`pynlo.utility`	Time and frequency grid utilities and other miscellaneous helper functions.
