Coupled-mode theory for corrugated optical waveguides

Abstract

A new derivation of the coupled-mode equations and coupling coefficient for the troublesome but important case of the Bragg reflection of TM guided waves in a corrugated, planar optical waveguide is presented. The technique solves the (approximate) wave equation directly and clarifies those features of the analysis that are essential to treat the problem correctly.
