Modal propagation analysis of a waveguide with a regular pentagonal cross section with conducting and nonconducting boundaries

Abstract: Using the weak guidance approximation and Goell's point‐matching method, a numerical analysis has been made of a guide with a pentagonal cross section, which may find wide applications in integrated optic technology. Two cases have been dealt with, namely, (i) a pentagonal guide cladded with a conducting substance, and (ii) a pentagonal guide loaded with conducting substance on alternate surfaces, the remaining surfaces being made of a dielectric substance. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons.

“…Among the non-circular cross-sections there are the triangular, elliptical, planar, polygonal and other more complicated shapes investigated [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Dielectric plane slab waveguides form the basic building blocks of a variety of devices in the field of integrated optics, laser beam technology, and microwave communications.…”

“…In recent years much effort has been made to analyze the modal characteristic of waveguides having various unconventional cross-sectional shapes (Kawakami and Nishida, 1974;Lewin, 1974;Misra et al, 1995;Matsuhara et al, 1988;Gu et al, 1989;Singh et al, 2000Singh et al, , 2001. Circular waveguides are an indispensable part of optical communication and so they have been studied extensively by various workers all over the world (Ito et al, 1995).…”

“…The study of circular fibers has been important not only to improve their propagation characteristics but also to motivate technological developments of associated optoelectronic components. It is also known that a waveguide with a non circular cross-section is special interest due to its possible use in integrated optics (Kawakami and Nishida, 1974;Lewin, 1974;Misra et al, 1995;Matsuhara et al, 1988;Gu et al, 1989;Singh et al, 2000Singh et al, , 2001. Analytical studies of such non-circular fibers, being difficult, are rather rare.…”

“…Analysis of multiple bounce scattering phenomena by PO is referred to as iterative physical optics (IPO) [6] and requires multiple surface integrations. For simplicity, we analyze a two-dimensional scattering from openended cavity type geometries, dominated by multiple bounce phenomena.…”
