Abstract A new computer design program based on the modified-complex method has been developed for constrained optimization and refinement of optical thin-film multilayer devices. This program is having a provision to include both limiting constraints as well as constraint equations. Constraints are suitably accommodated to generate designs which are practicable and withstand high laser power. Various rapid convergent processes like dynamic contraction and expansion of feasible vertices are incorporated for efficient scanning of the constraint parametric space. A broad band IR antireflection coating has been designed to test its relative efficiency with respect to other available methods. A wide varieties of highly useful multilayer devices have been successfully developed using this method.
