Project description

gplugins 1.3.3

GDSFactory plugins:

Device simulators
- Meshing
- FDTD
  - Ansys Lumerical
  - tidy3d
  - Luminescent
  - FDTDz
  - MEEP
- FEM
  - femwell Finite Element Method Solver (heaters, modes, TCAD, RF waveguides).
  - elmer for electrostatic (capacitive) simulations.
  - palace for full-wave driven (S parameter) and electrostatic (capacitive) simulations.
- EME
  - meow Eigen Mode Expansion (EME).
- Mode Solver
  - Tidy3d
  - Femwell
  - MPB
- TCAD
  - devsim TCAD device simulator.
Circuit simulations
- sax S-parameter circuit solver.
- vlsir for parsing GDS-extracted circuit netlists into Cadence Spectre, NgSpice and Xyce Schematic File formats.

You can install most plugins with:

pip install "gdsfactory[full]" --upgrade

pip install "gplugins[devsim,femwell,gmsh,schematic,meow,meshwell,ray,sax,tidy3d]" --upgrade

Or install only the plugins you need. For example:

pip install "gplugins[schematic,femwell,meow,sax,tidy3d]" --upgrade

The following plugins require special installation as they can't be installed with pip:

For Meep and MPB you need to use conda or mamba on MacOS, Linux or Windows WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) with conda install pymeep=*=mpi_mpich_* -c conda-forge -y
For Elmer, refer to Elmer FEM – Installation for installation or compilation instructions each platform. Gplugins assumes ElmerSolver, ElmerSolver_mpi, and ElmerGrid are available in your PATH environment variable.
For Palace, refer to Palace – Installation for compilation instructions using Spack or Singularity. Gplugins assumes palace is available in your PATH environment variable.

We recommend uv for installing GDSFactory:

# On macOS and Linux.
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

# On Windows.
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

Then you can install gdsfactory with:

uv venv --python 3.11
uv sync --extra docs --extra dev
