Electromagnetic Wave Propagation in Optical Guiding Structures: Numerical Modeling

Abstract

We have developed a website on Numerical Modeling of Optical Waveguides (http://optical-waveguides-modeling.net) that contains a Waveguide Tutorial, which summarizes basic concepts of light propagation in optical waveguides, dispersive, and nonlinear properties, and a broad collection of free and commercial software available for numerical simulations of waveguiding structures, supplied with a short summary of its capabilities and potential applications, a list of references to research papers that utilize a particular software package, and a link to the software provider's page. We provide the visitors of our website with an online file-sharing facility to be used to exchange simulation codes, documentation, and other relevant
