Abstract :
We propose a general method for analyzing a multilayer optical waveguide with a localized arbitrary nonlinear guiding film. This method can also be used to predict the evolution of a wave propagating along the multibranch planar waveguide with a localized arbitrary nonlinear guiding film. The numerical results show that our analyses are correct.
