Optical Fibre Waveguide Analysis
A comprehensive but practical analysis methodology for treating optical fibre waveguides is presented in this book. It is designed for both college students and practicing scientists and engineers. The book presents a framework which treats the light waveguide as a continuum of polarizing
devices, to which a multitude of analysis techniques are applied. A more rigorous but easy-to-grasp mathematical arrangement is developed in Parts II and III, for analyzing an all di-electric or metallic, 1D or 2D optical stratum. This basic technique is extended in Part IV to cover a general 2D or
3D curved optical fibre waveguide for which both the propagative and radiative far-field distributions, together with a set of characteristic equations and their solutions, are established. Similar to these simplified straight or curvilinear guidance structures, an elliptic waveguide or a fibre with
the D-shaped cladding, may be characterized analytically, but approximately, as demonstrated in Part V. Also included in Part V is the so-called finite element analysis as a distinctive alternative numerical computation method for analysing a more arbitrary fibre waveguide exhibiting an obvious
irregularity or anisotropy.
