Summary description: Customizable optical components for drawing laser setups and optical systems using TikZ
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The optikz package provides a collection of TikZ-based commands for drawing laser setups and optical systems. It includes components such as lenses, mirrors, beamsplitters, cameras, spectrometers, detectors and more. Each element is highly customizable through optional key-value arguments (e.g. angle, width, thickness, color). Furthermore, rainbow and single color beams can be drawn to visualize beam size and dispersion in e.g. stretcher-compressor setups.
