Filmstar
Filmstar is one of the best optical film software in the world.
What is Filmstar?
Professional software for optical thin film design
Filmstar is one of main products from FTG Software.
Filmstar is established since 1986 and good at thin film design, inversion fitting, material refractive index(n&k) fitting, measurement control, data management&analysis, coating training and so on.
The development team of Filmstar has many years of working and business handling experience in thin film coating industry. They are well aware of the importance of computer-aided technology and process automation.
Filmstar is more in line with the process and product features by combining software development technology and actual actual process characteristics of coating industry.
Filmstar has optimization (many optimization strategies including Needle and Buffer), refractive index fitting (Dielectric, semiconductor and metal materials, both substrates and thin film layer), inversion simulation (thickness, Tooling factors, coating rate, angle), color calculation(customized light source), data import and export and other basic functions.
Filmstar provides development platforms such as BASIC and WORKBOOK. The BASIC platform offers a wealth of examples for users to easily perform secondary development by simply setting process data parameters and paths. WORKBOOK is essentially an Excel file that fully leverages the width (many cells) and depth (functions, formulas, and feature settings) of Excel, as well as Filmstar's fast optimization and calculations capabilities, to expand optimization targets and summarize results.
Filmstar provides seamless integration and embedding with Excel for data processing and user interface design. It can generate .xls and .doc files without the need to open Excel or Word. Additionally, it offers advanced features such as exporting high-quality images and PDF files with FSPlot, and customizable template reports with ReportGenerator.
