Abstract

In terms of the presented mode eigenvalue equation, the mode propagation and absorption loss are analyzed for Au/InGaAsP/nP, air/Au/InGaAsP/InP, and Au/SiO₂/InGaAsP/InP single-mode metalclad multiple quantum-well optical waveguides. The effects of some guided structural parameters on the mode propagation and absorption loss are discussed, such as the periodic length, the ratio of the well thickness to the periodic length, the well number, and the thicknesses of the metal cladding and the dielectric buffer layer.
