I am looking for an optical modelling program (i.e. ray tracing program or based on physical models) which will suitably model general relective and refractive surfaces (in particular beamsplitters) to use in modelling an interferometer. Most commercial packages of which I am aware do not model refractive surfaces / beamsplitters. It may be PC (DOS), VMS or unix based. I also would like to determine modulation transfer functions of the device for a range of wavelengths if possible. I am aware of the commercial package CODE5, but I'm looking for something more affordable (public domain great) and portable. ************************************************************* * Roy J.
