Abstract :
Guided mode propagation in inhomogeneous dielectric waveguides is calculated by a series expansion method which is particularly useful for analysing single-mode dielectric waveguides. As an example we estimate the error in the phase constant of waveguides whose dielectric constant profile is not necessarily near-parabolic.
