iPhasematch vs The Matrix Mentor

iPhasematch allows you to calculate the phasematching condition of nonlinear wavelength conversion such as SHG or SFM based on published Sellmeier equiations. Downconversion (OPO) can be figured out by the reverse of SFM. It is a subset of the 'Qmix' function of a famous Windows software SNLO by Dr. Arlee Smith. This App does some of what SNLO does on your iOS device. It takes the crystal, two input wavelengths, and temperature and gives the phasematching orientations, effective nonlinear optical coefficients, walk-off angles, angular tolerance and temperature tolerance. In case of SHG, it also gives spectral tolerance. In biaxial crystals, it gives only the phasematching orientations in the principal planes, i.e., either theta=90 deg. or phi=0 or 90deg. Currently supported crystals: BBO, BiBO, CBO, CLBO, LB4, LBO, KBBF, KDP, KD*P, KN, KTP, Mg:LN, Mg:sLN, RBBF, RTP, YAB. NOTE: dn/dT data for LB4 was picked up from discrete data points in the reference and linearly extrapolated. Interface should be intuitive, giving phasematching with a tap of "PM" button,refractive index with "index" button and group index with "Gp.Idx" button, for the given condition (crystal, wavelengths, and temperature). DISCLAIMER: I cannot be held responsible for the result of the calculation it gives. I make every effort to make it accurate, and bug-free, but there could be errors in code. Please just use this on your own discretion.

Are matrices getting you down? Don’t worry… THE MATRIX MENTOR IS HERE TO HELP The Matrix Mentor provides a visual understanding of linear transformations. Where others may teach you the mathematical rules that can be hard to remember, our playground provides a visual and interactive demonstration of the inner workings. SCARED OF MATRICES? DON'T BE! At its core, The Matrix Mentor is a visual learning tool, designed to bring matrices from an abstract mathematical concept to a concrete application. Whether you think about vectors as 3D points or a RGB color value, the fundamentals hold true. - Experiment with different types of transformations - Discover how matrices interact with a given vector, or a whole grid of points - Develop your intuitive sense for reading matrices and linear transformations Do yourself a favour, and start playing with The Matrix Mentor today!
