Abstract
A novel implementation of the Finite Difference Beam Propagation Method for optical rib waveguide structures with air cladding is presented. Typical calculations for practically useful rib waveguide tapers confirm that the new approach is faster, requires less memory and maintains accuracy when compared with previously used techniques
