Bent optical waveguide finite element analysis with a 3D envelope Maxwell model

Jaime Mora-Paz, Stefan Henneking, Leszek Demkowicz +1

With the goal of accurately extracting the optical field losses in a three-dimensional (3D), circularly coiled waveguide (e.g., bent optical fiber), this effort presents the numeri…

Length-explicit stability analysis of Helmholtz problems in leaky circular waveguides

Leszek Demkowicz, Martin Halla, Jens Markus Melenk

Motivated by the study and simulation of long, coiled optical fibers we consider in this article a simplified model that is prevalent in the engineering community. Mathematically,…

Bessel Functions and Analysis of Circular Waveguides

Jaime Mora-Paz, Leszek Demkowicz, Christina G. Taylor +2

The paper is devoted to the study of circularly coiled optical slab waveguides, which is also applicable to acoustical waveguides. We use a change of variables and the classical Fr…

A Space-Time Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin Finite Element Formulation for a Modified Schrödinger Equation for Laser Pulse Propagation in Waveguides

Ankit Chakraborty, Judit Munoz-Matute, Leszek Demkowicz +1

In this article, we propose a modified nonlinear Schrödinger equation for modeling pulse propagation in optical waveguides. The proposed model bifurcates into a system of elliptic…
