With the use of the scalar field approximation a study has been made of a guide ha¨ing a shape of the lemniscate of Bernoulli as its cross section. This structure represents approximately the situation when two cores are embedded in the same cladding. This is often done in ( practice. In this case o

β¦ Synopsis
We make an analytical study of the modal cutoff beha¨ior of a wa¨eguide with an annular core cross section bounded by two nonconcentric circles. The characteristic and cutoff equations are obtained with the use of the weak guidance approximation. Numerical computations show that the number of modes sustained is lowered as the concentric annular cross section becomes nonconcentric.

Using Goell's point-matching method under the weak guidance approximation, we obtain and interpret the modal dispersion cur¨es for some low-order modes sustained by an optical wa¨eguide whose guiding region has a double-con¨ex-lens-like cross section. It is found that the dispersion cur¨es are of th

The improvement in the angle is thus 1.5Π. For still lower n , 3 further improvement woul
