You will gain a thorough understanding of the fundamental physics of mode structure.Optical Waveguide Modes covers single- and few-mode optical waveguides with an emphasis on single-core and multicore optical fibers and couplers, including a large range of geometries and anisotropies. Analysis is performed using extensions of the weak-guidance perturbation formalism together with elementary group representation theory. This definitive volume offers a detailed introduction to and classification of diverse forms of fundamental and higher-order modes and various polarization manifestations.Coverage includes:Electromagnetic theory for anisotropic mediaWeak guidance for longitudinally invariant fibersCircular isotropic longitudinally invariant fibersAzimuthal symmetry breakingBirefringence: linear, radial, and circularMulticore and multifiber couplers
