| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to develop high performance optical devices, we have developed a new automatic optimal design method using computer simulation and studied for improving its robustness and efficiency. Specifically, to improve the performance of optical devices to the utmost limit, the structure of the design region is represented numerically by a function expansion method, and the design parameters are optimized by an hybrid method of gradient method and evolutionary method that enables a more global solution search than the conventional gradient method. In order to improve the efficiency of the optimal design, efficiencient numerical simulation techniques are newly developed and the use of machine learning are also investigated. Through these study, the guideline for the extension to the multi-objective optimal design method which can consider various objectives simultaneously is obtained.
