Abstract
The stratified cladding of integrated optical waveguides is dispersive , which induces quite original phenomena. We present an example of a d ielectric waveguide for which there exists a guided mode which propaga tes faster than some waves in the stratified cladding. Such a guide pr esents a specific symmetry and the key point is a separate study of th e symmetrical and antisymmetrical modes.
