Abstract
The propagation characteristics of nonlinear TE waves guided by planar optical waveguide whose guiding region has arbitrary inhomogeneous re fractive-index profile are investigated theoretically by using the WKB method. The effects of inhomogeneous index profile of a guided region on the propagation characteristics such as the propagation constant a nd the field distribution are estimated numerically.
