Lumerical Forum __full__ »

Outside the forum, in labs and classrooms, the patterns honed there made experiments run smoother, papers become clearer, and deadlines less terrifying. Inside the forum, new threads formed—about optimization tricks, about inexplicable resonances, about code refactors and sanity checks—each one a vein of knowledge that fed into the whole.
