Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to an optical waveguide system. The system may include a first waveguide having a core-guide and a material portion surrounding and encasing the core-guide. The core-guide enables a core-guide mode for an optical signal travelling through the core-guide. A second waveguide forms a lossy waveguide on an outer surface of the first waveguide. The construction of the second waveguide is such as to achieve a desired coupling between the core-guide mode and the lossy waveguide to control an energy level of the optical signal travelling through the core-guide.

Claim (Index 21):
The method of  claim 19 , further comprising using the plasmonic device to channel optical energy outwardly from the optical waveguide, generally normal to the optical waveguide, at least at one selected location along the optical waveguide.
