Stress analysis method for elastically anisotropic material based optical waveguides and its application to strain-induced optical waveguides

A numerical approach for the stress analysis of elastically anisotropic material-based optical waveguides is newly formulated with the finite element method (FEM). The stress analysis method developed here is linked to the guided mode analysis method to produce a two-step analysis of acoustooptic mo...

Description
Summary:A numerical approach for the stress analysis of elastically anisotropic material-based optical waveguides is newly formulated with the finite element method (FEM). The stress analysis method developed here is linked to the guided mode analysis method to produce a two-step analysis of acoustooptic modulation of optical waveguides. Numerical examples are shown for strain-induced optical waveguides on LiNbO/sub 3/ substrates.
