Abstract
In this work, we present SuPyMode, a Python package for designing and optimizing the design of new fiber optic components. The software allows simulating the optical behavior of custom fiber optic structures and provides analysis tools based on coupled mode theory to retrieve insightful parameters, such as the adiabatic criterion. The library has been developed with an intuitive and easy-to-handle user interface linked to a C++ core for fast computation. The library also offers visualization tools for a comprehensive examination of the simulated results. SuPyMode has already successfully predicted improved design for newly developed 2- and 3-mode modally specific photonic lanterns.
