Analysis of Leaky Modes in Photonic Crystal Fibers Using the Surface Integral Equation Method

A fully vectorial algorithm based on the surface integral equation method for the modelling of leaky modes in photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) by solely solving the complex propagation constants of characteristic equations is presented. It can be used for calculations of the complex effective index an...
