English Abstract

Dispersion properties of guided modes in three-layer slab waveguide structures with a linearly graded-index profile film are investigated.

Closed-form expressions for electric and magnetic fields and the dispersion relation are derived.

For transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) waves, the three normalized parameters: the asymmetry measure (a), the generalized frequency (V) and the generalized guide index (b) are utilized to study the dispersion properties of the proposed slab waveguide structures.

We assume three structures: the first comprises a left-handed material (LHM) cladding, the second comprises a LHM substrate layer and the third has a LHM cladding and LHM substrate.

The results show that the proposed waveguide exhibit the normal dispersion property in which b increases as V increases.
