This investigation concerned curved MMI structures with various geometries – for the linear, concave function described by an exponential function, and the convex structure connected with a cosine course. The relations derived characterizing the relative shortening of the length of propagation for N-fold images have been confirmed by numerical simulations using the beam propagation method (BPM) of symmetrically excited gradient splitters 1×2.}, title={Self-imaging effects in curved gradient index multimode interference structures made by K+–Na+ ion exchange}, type={artykuł}, keywords={optyka, multimode interference structures, ion-exchange}, }
