キーワード：Photonic Integration, Advanced Passive Devices, Optical isolator, circulator, variable attenuators, Micro- and nano-optics and related devices

We demonstrate a computational, optimization-based approach to inverse-design photonic devices meeting desired performance specifications. Several applications range from compact wavelength-demultiplexer devices to quantum optics and chip-scale LIDAR.
