WKB Analysis of Bend Losses in Optical Waveguides

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A more complete Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) analysis of bend losses is given for a circularly curved waveguide. Using the WKB approximation with a conformal transformation of a curved optical waveguide, is shown to give more accurate bend loss results.
