Abstract

An exact numerical method for analyzing the propagation properties of leaky modes of inhomogeneous channel optical waveguides with a complex uniaxial diagonal permittivity tensor is developed. The method is based on solving the system of integro-differential equations formulated with respect to transversal components of the magnetic field and the longitudinal component of the electric field. Some results of investigation of leaky modes of diffused channel waveguides in LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 crystals are given.
