Out-of-plane scattering from glass waveguides: comparison of theory and experiment.
The angular distribution of the radiation emitted into the far field by TE(0); and TM(0) optical guided waves was measured and compared with a theory assuming surface roughness to be the source of the scattering. The comparison with theory was made in such a way that a detailed knowledge of the surface under investigation was not required.
