Abstract
The TE-TM mode conversion is an important requirement for magneto-optical waveguide devices. It has been analyzed by means of a full-vectorial beam propagation method. The present work is based on the study of the influence of diagonal and off-diagonal elements of the complex dielectric tensor on the conversion efficiency in magneto-optical rib waveguide. We have found that in the presence of the absorption (taking into account the imaginary part of diagonal tensor) the conversion efficiency is affected by the absorption and these latter increases as the volume fraction of nanoparticles increases.
