Full-vectorial analysis of optical waveguide discontinuities using a propagation operator method based on the finite element scheme discontinuities using a propagation operator method based on the finite element scheme

We propose an efficient numerical method for the full-vectorial analysis of three-dimensional (3-D) optical waveguide discontinuities. In this method, the finite element method with higher adaptability and flexibility is employed to discretize the waveguide cross section. In order to calculate the square root of the characteristic matrix, the Denman-Beavers iterative scheme is used. Applying this method to 3-D strongly guiding waveguide discontinuity problems, the modal reflectivities of the fundamental TE-like and TM-like modes are calculated. These results show unique vector properties and significantly differ from those of scalar analysis because various mode couplings between the field components occur at the discontinuity facet and they cannot be ignored.
