Abstract

We present the studies of the modes of a uniaxially anisotropic linear guide by a plane-wave spectrum approach. Starting with an arbitrary optical axis, the axial phase constants of the modes are evaluated for special cases. We conclude with the determination of Green’s function for E_y^mn and E_x^mn modes of the guide.
