Abstract
In this letter, a theoretical analysis has been conducted to obtain the mod al dispersion characteristics of an elliptical optical waveguide having one -fourth of the cladding region loaded with metal. Using Goell's point match ing method under the weak guidance condition, the modal eigen value equatio n has been deduced numerically. From this equation dispersion curves are ob tained and plotted.
