The scalar wave equation for optical waveguides with arbitrary refractive index profiles is solved using a numerically stable integration method. The mode fields and the corresponding propagation constants are determined iteratively. Results for waveguides based on different well-known fabrication techniques are shown and the design of a new sensitive integrated optical switch is proposed.
