Fujitsu Ltd’s Fujitsu Laboratories has acquired from France’s CNET National Centre for the Study of Telecommunications the right to use its software for simulating micro-optoelectronic systems in its own research and development of optical devices, CNET says. Using digital simulation and finite element analysis, the software Beam Propagation Method by CNET, BPM-CNET, enables the user to conceptualise and optimise micro-optoelectronic devices and to evaluate their performance before implementing them, the research centre says. BPM-CNET supports almost three-dimensional simulation, CNET says. The software is used Europe-wide, in the European Community’s RACE Research into Advanced Communications for Europe programme, at Italy’s Telecommunications Laboratories and Studies Centre, CSELT, belonging to the Group IRI-STET, and at France’s National Institute of Applied Science, INSA. The licence to use the software in Japan was transferred under the auspices of the Japanese-European Technology Interface Corp.
