pip install hyperwave-community
import hyperwave_community as hwc
hwc.configure_api(api_key="your-api-key")
# Build device from GDSFactory component
recipe = hwc.build_recipe(
component_name="mmi2x2_with_sbend",
resolution_nm=20,
n_core=3.48,
)
# Build monitors and solve waveguide mode
monitors = hwc.build_monitors(recipe, source_port="o1")
source = hwc.solve_mode_source(recipe, monitors)
# Run on B200 GPU
results = hwc.run_simulation(recipe, monitors, source)
# Analyze transmission
hwc.analyze_transmission(results)Developer-Friendly. Enterprise-Ready.
