Abstract
The aim of Moosh is to provide a complete set of tools to compute all the optical properties of any multilayered structure: reflection, transmission, absorption spectra, as well as gaussian beam propagation or guided modes. It can be seen as a semi-analytic (making it light and fast) solver for Maxwell’s equations in multilayers. It is written in Octave/Matlab, available on Github and based on scattering matrices, making it perfectly stable. This software is meant to be extremely easy to (re)use, and could prove useful in many research areas like photovoltaics, plasmonics and nanophotonics, as well as for educational purposes for the large number of physical phenomena it can illustrate.

I received my Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Montpellier in France, where I studied electromagnetic wave propagation in complex media, with an emphasis on nonlinear optical phenomena. I hold a M.Sc. degree in Science for Engineering from Sapienza University of Rome. I spent three years in Prof. David R. Smith's group at Duke Universityas as Postdoctoral Fellow first and as Research Scientist later. Most of my research activity involves numerical modeling and investigation of electromagnetic propagation in complex media. In particular, nonlinear optical phenomena have constituted the principal subject of my studies, which required the employment of different numerical methods. My recent activity concerns nonlinear and nonlocal optical response of plasmonic nanostructures.
