Abstract :
The letter presents a new conical structure which can support the spherical hybrid modes associated with a corrugated conical waveguide. The analysis closely follows that of hybrid modes in a corrugated conical waveguide. It is found that, to obtain hybrid modes in a dielectric lined conical waveguide, it is necessary to taper the dielectric constant of the lining.
