The geometric optics analysis of the excitation of the planar waveguide by sources assumes that power may enter any bound ray whose direction belongs to the continuum of directions defined by Eq. (I-5a). However, as a consequence of diffraction, power enters certain preferred directions only, and the smaller V, the smaller the number of preferred directions. If V is sufficiently small, then there is only one preferred direction and all bound rays propagate with the same transit time. As V increases, the number of preferred ray directions becomes sufficiently large that it can be accurately approximated by a continuum. [Pg.200]

The simplest optical waveguide structure is an infinite planar slab of perfectly transparent, isotropic, dielectric material with refractive index rig bounded on both surfaces by similar material of index rio < rig (see Fig. 1). According to SnelFs law, light rays in the slab will be totally internally reflected if they have an incidence angle 6 with a surface satisfying... [Pg.282]
