GDSFactory plugins

Run simulations with GDSFactory by installing plugins.

  • Device simulators
    • Meshing
    • FDTD
      • Ansys Lumerical
      • tidy3d
      • Luminescent
      • FDTDz
      • MEEP
    • FEM
      • femwell Finite Element Method Solver (heaters, modes, TCAD, RF waveguides).
      • elmer for electrostatic (capacitive) simulations.
      • palace for full-wave driven (S parameter) and electrostatic (capacitive) simulations.
    • EME
      • meow Eigen Mode Expansion (EME).
    • Mode Solver
      • Tidy3d
      • Femwell
      • MPB
      • EMode Finite Difference Method (FDM) mode solver with EME propagation (commercial).
    • TCAD
      • devsim TCAD device simulator.
  • Circuit simulations
    • sax S-parameter circuit solver.
    • vlsir for parsing GDS-extracted circuit netlists into Cadence Spectre, NgSpice and Xyce Schematic File formats.

Installation

You can install most plugins with:

pip install "gdsfactory[full]" --upgrade

Or list the plugins individually:

pip install "gplugins[devsim,femwell,gmsh,schematic,meow,meshwell,sax,tidy3d]" --upgrade

Or install only the plugins you need. For example:

pip install "gplugins[schematic,femwell,meow,sax,tidy3d]" --upgrade

Non-pip plugins

The following plugins require special installation as they can't be installed with pip:

  • For Meep and MPB you need to use conda or mamba on MacOS, Linux or Windows WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) with conda install pymeep=*=mpi_mpich_* -c conda-forge -y
  • For Elmer, refer to Elmer FEM – Installation for installation or compilation instructions each platform. Gplugins assumes ElmerSolver, ElmerSolver_mpi, and ElmerGrid are available in your PATH environment variable.
  • For Palace, refer to Palace – Installation for compilation instructions using Spack or Singularity. Gplugins assumes palace is available in your PATH environment variable.

Installation for contributors

We recommend uv for installing GDSfactory. If you don't already have uv, install with the following command:

# On macOS and Linux.
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
# On Windows.
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

-Then you can install gplugins and its dependency groups with:

uv venv --python 3.12
uv sync --extra docs --extra dev # --extra tidy3d --extra femwell ...
