Abstract:
A novel numerical method, based on a molecular dynamics algorithm for coupled harmonic oscillators, is applied to the mode analysis of arbitrary-shaped optical waveguides. We describe in detail the relationships between the vibrational equation of motion for lattice dynamics and the discretized form of the wave equation for light. This mapping is useful for the analysis of the characteristics of optical waveguides. The efficiency of the method is demonstrated by application of the method to the mode analysis of a semiconductor rib-waveguide.
