Abstract :
The behavior of nonlinear TE-waves guided by asymmetrical dielectric slab waveguides, having a generalized nonlinear substrate with a permittivity of the form ε~|E&oarr;|δ, is analyzed. Using an analytical solution for the electromagnetic fields in this nonlinear media, the dispersion relations, electric field profiles, and cutoff frequencies are illustrated and discussed
