Abstract
A self-consistent numerical approach based on the scalar finite element method is described for the analysis of both TE-like and TM-like nonlinear guided waves in optical channel waveguides. In order to improve the convergence and accuracy of solutions, isoparametric elements and numerical integration formulae derived by Hammer et al. are introduced. Numerical results are presented for nonlinear elliptical core optical fibers, and it is confirmed that in this approach, highly accurate solutions can be obtained with small scale computation. Furthermore, graded-index nonlinear optical channel waveguides are also analyzed, and the influence of refractive-index profiles on propagation characteristics of the nonlinear guided waves is investigated. >
