AS NAME SUGGEST IN MULTILAYER WAVEGUIDES WE USE MULTIPLE LAYER TO IMPLEMENT WAVEGUIDE DEVICES.

(MULTILAYER WAVEGUIDE STRUCTURE)

MULTILAYER WAVEGUIDES ARE USED IN IMPLEMENTATION OF A VARIETY OF OPTICAL DEVICES INCLUDING SEMICONDUCTORS LASERS, MODULATORS WAVEGUIDE POLARIZERS AND DIRECTIONAL COUPLER etc.

THIN FILM TRANSFER MATRIX FORMULATION METHOD IS RECENTLY PRIMARY TOOL TO SOLVE PROPAGATION CONSTANT AND DISSPERSION IN MULTILAYER WAVEGUIDE STRUCTURE.

IN MULTIPLE LAYERWAVEGUIDE STRUCTURE BENEFIT IS POWER LOSS IS LESS COMPARE TO SIMPLE ONE STRUCTURE.

NUMEROUS EFFORTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO SOLVE THE WAVE EQUATION FOR PROPAGATING MODES IN GENERAL LOSSLESS OR LOSSY MULTILAYER WAVEGUIDE.

DIFFERENTS METHOD TO SOLVE PROPAGATION CONSTANT IN MUTIPLE LAYER WAVEGUIDE THAT IS PERTUBATION METHOD (FOR LOSSLESS 5 LAYER, LOSSY 4 LAYER) , NEWTONS METHOD (METAL-CLAD WAVEGUIDE), MODEL MATCHING METHOD .

For propagating modes the tangential fields at the boundaries must be exponentially decaying having the form

Conclusion:

USING TRANSFER MATRIX FORMULATION WE CAN SOLVE COMPLEX FIELD EQUATION TO FIND MODES IN THE MULTILAYER WAVEGUIDE.RECENTLY ONE ANOTHER METOD IS EVOLVED THAT IS DERIVED FROM THE PREVIOUS METHOD NAME ARGUMENT PRINCIPAL THEOREM (APT).
