Abstract
For wave-guiding structures with multiple longitudinal reflecting interfaces, a bidirectional beam propagation method has been developed using a scattering operator formulation and rational approximations to the square root and the propagation operators. For periodic waveguides, it is possible to significantly speed up the method when scattering operators for a waveguide with s1 + s2 periods are obtained directly from those operators associated with waveguides having s1 and s2 periods. The required computing time is then proportional to the logarithm of the total number of periods.
