finesse.components.node.OpticalNode

Overview

class finesse.components.node.OpticalNode(name, port, direction)

Bases: Node

Represents a specific optical port connection at a component.

OpticalNodes also have additional physical properties such as the beam parameter (of type BeamParam) at the nodes’ position within the interferometer.

Parameters:

namestr

Name of the optical node.

portPort

The port that this node belongs to.

directionNodeDirection

True if the field at this node is going into the component.

Properties

OpticalNode.opposite	The opposite direction node.
OpticalNode.q	Beam parameter value at this node.
OpticalNode.qx	Beam parameter value in the tangential plane.
OpticalNode.qy	Beam parameter value in the sagittal plane.
OpticalNode.space	A reference to the Space object attached to this node.
