Inverse Design of a Taper by Scatter Search Metaheuristic

This paper deals with the optimization of photonic structures, specifically waveguide couplers between a continuous waveguide (CWG) and a periodically segmented waveguide (PSW). For this purpose, a numerical technique called finite element method (FEM) is used in conjunction with an adapted optimiza...
