RETICOLOfilm-stack V6

RETICOLOfilm-stack program is a free software package developed for use within Matlab. It is designed to compute the reflection and transmission of arbitrary stacks of anisotropic thin films. The program is fully vectorized, enabling efficient handling of multiple wavelengths and incident angles in a single operation. Compared to existing methods, as discussed in Section XI.2 of the documentation, RETICOLOfilm-stack is recognized for its high reliability, stability, effectiveness, and versatility.

RETICOLOfilm-stack builds upon the functionality of RETICOLO [arXiv:2101.00901], which is a tool for analyzing diffraction by gratings with the RCWA.

Due to time constraints, the software will not be published in a journal archive. If you use RETICOLOfilm-stack, please acknowledge the software with the following citation:  J.-P. Hugonin and P. Lalanne, RETICOLOfilm-stack, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7429030.
