Abstract
The propagation of optical beams in optical thin films grown by pulsed lase r deposition is studied numerically in order to predict the influence of th e film curvature on the performance of planar waveguide lasers. Several wav eguiding structures are considered. The confinement of both the pump and th e signal fields as well the overlap between the beams during propagation ar e examined.
