Asymptotic Iteration Method: A Powerful Approach for Analysis of Inhomogeneous Dielectric Slab Waveguides

Abstract: Abstract-In this paper a novel approach based on Asymptotic Iteration Method (AIM) is presented to solve analytically the light propagation through one-dimensional inhomogeneous slab waveguide. Practically implemented optical slab waveguides based on traditional techniques are usually inhomogeneous and numerical methods are used to obtain guided wave characteristics. In this work, we develop analytical method for modal analysis includes Eigen modes (electric and magnetic fields distribution) and Eigen values (… Show more

“…The propagation characteristics in the waveguides can be analyzed by various computational methods [27][28][29], e.g., the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method [30,31] and the beam propagation method (BPM) [32]. In this paper, the single-mode condition for the waveguides at a specific wavelength of 1550 nm is numerically analyzed by using the semi-vectorial BPM.…”
