AGUIRRE-MENDEZ, A.; SALDANA-SALDANA, X. I.  y  SAMPEDRO, M. P.. Modos guiados en un sistema de multicapas dieléctricas de Thue-Morse. Superf. vacío [online]. 2010, vol.23, n.4, pp.09-14. ISSN 1665-3521.

The numerical analysis of the electromagnetic guided waves in a non-periodic Thue-Morse layer media is presented. We do not consider absorption or dissipation of light in the dielectric layers. To analyze the guided waves, the solution of the wave Maxwell's equation in each layer is found, thus the matrix method and the rational approximation are used. The band structures of the guided modes are computed varying the refractive index and the thickness of the layers for different generation of the Thue-Morse sequence and the conditions for the existence of the guided modes in these systems are explained. The band diagrams of the guided modes are split according with the aperiodic system Thue-Morse showing autosimilarity.
