Abstract
Expressions for the amplitude and power of surface-waveguide modes excited by a plane wave along a semi-infinite dielectric cylinder are presented. Approximations for small dielectric differences are given, which result in a simple expression for the power of the modes. Application of these results to light propagating along the human retinal receptors is discussed.
