Abstract

Our aim is to propose an integral method to compute propagation constants and associated fields of guided modes of an optical coupler with a step-index profile and an arbitrary shape of cores. We will solve Maxwell's system to describe the guided mode propagation in the general case. According to the obtained numerical results, one can note the good potential of this method to describe completely the dispersion curves and the coupling phenomena.
