Data underpinning: BPM-Matlab - An open-source optical propagation simulation tool in MATLAB

BPM-Matlab is an open-source optical propagation simulation tool we developed in MATLAB environment for computationally efficient simulation of electric field propagation through a wide variety of optical fiber geometries using Douglas-Gunn Alternating Direction Implicit finite difference method. The validations of BPM-Matlab numerical results are provided in the article by comparing them against published data and results from state-of-the-art commercial software. The simulation tool is gratis, open-source, fast, user-friendly, and supports optional CUDA acceleration. It can be downloaded from https://gitlab.gbar.dtu.dk/biophotonics/BPM-Matlab. The software is published under the terms of the GPLv3 License.
The data available here in DTU Data can be used to reproduce the figures 1-5 in the Optics Express manuscript titled 'BPM-Matlab - An open-source optical propagation simulation tool in MATLAB'. These data are generated using BPM-Matlab software except for Data_Fig1_d.mat. We suggest the user to use Matlab 2018a or newer to open and read the data.
