Abstract

The characteristics of guided waves scattered by nonuniform Bragg waveguide gratings are systematically investigated by using a staircase approximation, which is a combination of the building blocks of the multimode network theory and a rigorous mode-matching procedure. The bent dielectric waveguides, periodically with Bragg gratings of rectangular profile and chirped waveguide gratings, are taken as an example of the presented approach. Extensive numerical data are obtained to develop guidelines for integrated optical applications.
