GenetiCode simplifies the complex process of coating design by automating several key steps:

• Define the Optimization Goal

Just like in CODE, you begin by setting the optimization targets. These can include integral data like light transmittance, color coordinates, IR emissivity, U and g values, or even target spectra that your design must replicate.

• Specify Materials and Thickness Ranges

Next, you inform GenetiCode about the materials available for use, along with their optical constants and thickness ranges achievable in a single deposition step. This setup is crucial for accurate optimization.

• Configure Deposition Steps

You then define the structure and capacity of your deposition equipment. By listing the materials available for each deposition step, you allow GenetiCode to calculate the best combination of materials and thicknesses for optimal coating performance.

• Automated Optimization

Once the parameters are set, GenetiCode employs a genetic algorithm to automatically design the coating. While the software runs, you can take a break and let the program handle the intricate computations. Simple tasks might be completed in minutes, while more complex designs could run overnight.

• Review and Select the Best Designs

After optimization, GenetiCode presents you with a table of the best designs, detailing the materials and thicknesses for each deposition step. You can inspect and choose the most suitable design for your needs.
