# optio

Open-source simulation and optimization of OPTical IO to integrated photonic chips through MEEP and MPB [1,2]. Currently supports 2D simulations of grating couplers as referenced in [3,4].

## TODO

* Usage documentation

* Unittests w/ quantitative comparison to benchmark

* Material dispersion

* Improve parameter sweep interface

* Add optimization (NLopt)

* Clean up
