TE wave properties of slab dielectric guide bounded by nonlinear non-Kerr-like media

TE wave properties of slab dielectric waveguides with nonlinear non-Kerr-like substrate and cladding are presented. The guide can support even- and odd-symmetric modes in asymmetrical substrate and asymmetrical modes in completely symmetrical substrate. Dispersion relations and electric field profiles are illustrated and analytically discussed in detail.
