Paraxia-Plus-10
With origins from Stanford U., Paraxia-Plus-10 is a Windows based optical design program specifically optimized for laser resonator and laser beam propagation applications. Its drag and drop layout mode enables real time visualization of beam properties using the “Digital Laser Workbench”. Laser engineers/designers can access laser beam data not generally available from geometric ray tracing optical design codes. Tools include optimization, tolerance analysis, stability plots, and FFT based rigorous beam propagation of arbitrary input beams. This enables simulation of diffraction effects and beam deviations from decentered and/or laser damaged components. Waist size and location is listed relative to each component, and beam diameter and beam radius of curvature is available anywhere along the beam path. Users can supply code to extend capabilities, and to enable scripting. The program is used worldwide by, consultants, laser companies, & govt. labs, often with multiple copies.

BeamWise
BeamWise is a set of software tools and related services for the design of biophotonic and other complex optical systems. It is implemented using Design++, a knowledge-based engineering platform that simplifies the capture of in-house engineering expertise and streamlines the integration of legacy systems into design automation and product configuration solutions. BeamWise fills the gap between the optical and mechanical worlds by augmenting CAD tools like AutoCAD and SolidWorks with design rules and a component library, ensuring that beam alignment is maintained as design changes propagate through the system. This design automation system addresses significant challenges in optical system design, such as costly prototype iterations, time-consuming design documentation, and poor predictability of instrument performance, by automating the creation of 3D CAD models and design documentation, including drawings and parts lists.
