Abstract
Here we present the analyses of the open (without a metal screen) ridged and photonic waveguide structures by means of the electrodynamical rigorous method of the Singular Integral Equations (SIE). The waveguides are made of a lossy silicon carbide (SiC) material. We have discovered peculiarities of the dispersion characteristics. We have found the numerical solutions to the com- plex wave equations. The dispersion characteristics of both waveguide structures are numerically analyzed and com- pared with each other. It was found that the losses of modes propagating in the waveguide structure with air openings (channels) are smaller than the losses in the waveguide structure without air openings. We came to the conclusion that it is possible to optimize the dispersion characteristics by adding openings of different shapes and sizes into the waveguide structures.
