  • Abstract
    A simple extension to the effective-index method (EIM) for the solution of lossy dielectric waveguides, whereby the attenuation constant can be calculated, is presented. The method is valid for structures where both the guiding and surrounding regions have dielectric losses. Furthermore, the attenuation constant is given directly from the lossless solution
