Matrix method for the study of wave propagation in one-dimensional general media.
A matrix method which relates the field and its derivative is presented for the study of wave propagation in any type of one-dimensional media. The transfer matrix is obtained from the canonical solutions of Helmholtz equations at normal incidence. The method is applied to different optical systems like a Fabry-Perot cavity formed by uniform fiber Bragg gratings, periodic dielectric structures and different quasi-periodic structures based on Fibonacci and Thue-Morse sequences of layers with constant and variable refractive index.
