title: Modal Methods for Modeling and Simulation of Photonic
abstract: Optical waveguide structures and devices are the fundamental basic building blocks of photonic cireuits which play important roles in modern telecommunication and sensing systems. With the fast development of fabrication technologies and in response to the needs of miniaturization and fast increased functionality in future integrated photonic chips, various structures based on high-index contrast waveguides, surface plasmonic polaritons structures, etc., have been widely proposed and investigate
