Z. Zhuo et al., CUTOFF CHARACTER AND SINGLE-MODE CONDITION FOR CHANNEL WAVE-GUIDES OFANISOTROPIC CRYSTALS, Progress in Natural Science, 7(2), 1997, pp. 179-186
On the basis of introduction of electromagnetic wave theory of modes i
nto channel waveguides of anisotropic crystals and analysis of effecti
ve index analytical method, the mode eigenvalue of channel waveguides
with graded refractive index distributions has been obtained by combin
ing the potential well model with WKB method. The mode cutoff characte
r and single mode condition were deduced for the waveguides with eithe
r step-like or graded refractive index distributions.
