`CODE V: What's New
`
`CODE V 10.6 delivers an innovative new optimization feature to speed the design of advanced optical systems. In
`addition, the release provides new charting capabilities and analysis improvements that enable faster, more flexible
`optical design validation.
`
`Step Optimization
`
`The new Step Optimization (STP) feature uses an
`algorithm developed by Synopsys' Optical Solutions
`Group to improve CODE V's industry-leading
`optimization capabilities in two ways. Step
`Optimization can substantially accelerate optimization
`convergence, reducing the time needed to find the
`best solution. It can also navigate complicated solution
`spaces more effectively to find optical system
`solutions with smaller error functions compared to
`traditional damped-least-squares optimization. This
`gives designers a powerful new tool for helping ensure
`that optical quality meets or exceeds performance specifications.
`
`Step Optimization is particularly useful for optimizing complex lens systems. It can also speed up the optimization when
`used with the Reduce Tolerance Sensitivity (SAB) feature to reduce the impact of tolerances on system performance
`and minimize production costs. Step Optimization can be used in CODE V's local optimization feature as well as its
`Global Synthesis® global optimization feature.
`
`"CODE V's Step Optimization (STP) feature yielded significant reductions in error function for my microlithography
`lenses, particularly in the early stages of the design process," said David Williamson, NRCA Fellow, Nikon Research
`Corporation of America. "I am very impressed with STP's convergence speed and effectiveness, and think it is possibly
`the greatest improvement to CODE V optimization in all the years that I have used the software."
`
`New 2D and 3D Charting
`
`CODE V line and surface charts have been
`significantly improved in several key analysis
`features, with a new look and many additional
`capabilities that enhance users' ability to visualize
`and present system performance results. The new
`2D and 3D charting features provide extensive
`customization capabilities, including the ability to
`rotate and zoom 3D charts, select Cartesian 2D or
`3D surface charts, choose from multiple scaling,
`rendering and color scheme options and
`interactively explore data points of interest.

`
`The CODE V Automatic Design, Beam Synthesis Propagation, Point Spread Function and MTF features now have
`completely redesigned graphical user interfaces. The new interfaces feature intuitive, simplified windows to help guide
`you through parameter setup and streamline analysis, especially for optimization setup and beam propagation analysis.
`In addition, new navigation and selection features are available in the Navigation Window to facilitate 2D and 3D
`charting usage.
