strapy - scattering and transfer matrix model, python Angus Bridges Andrew Yacoot Thomas Kissinger Ralph Tatam 10.17862/cranfield.rd.12001236.v3 https://cord.cranfield.ac.uk/articles/software/scampy_-_scattering_matrix_model_python/12001236 <p><code>strapy </code>is python package implementing the combined transfer and scattering matrix modelling approach described in [1], jointly developed by the National Physical Laboratory and the Centre for Engineering Photonics at Cranfield University as part of an EPSRC funded iCASE studentship. The primary motivation to develop this software was to model the effects of multiple reflections and polarisation leakage within the optics of homodyne displacement measuring interferometers, however <code>strapy</code> is generally applicable to modelling the propagation of monochromatic light through networks of planar optical components.</p><p><br></p><p>This archive record holds copies of <code>strapy,</code> along with the <code>ctmm </code>dependency and their respective documentation, as they were at the time of publication.
