  4. Abstract:
  5. A new strategy for radiation loss reduction in curved slab waveguides is presented. The proposed strategy is based on the proper modification of the boundary conditions at the core-to-cladding interface, whereupon extremely thin conductive nanolayers with non-zero surface conductance are imposed. The obtained numerical results show a noticeable decrease in the overall loss level. © 2008 The Institution of Engineering and Technology
