  • Abstract
    A new spectral domain method is proposed for the exact and efficient numerical full-wave analysis of planar multilayer and multiconductor optical and microwave waveguide structures. It includes a systematic procedure with very less analytical and computational effort. The propagation constants are calculated for some examples and compared to existing results.
