Propagation of electyric field in 3d waveguide

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,
I want to see the propagation of electric field inside an optical waveguide which is composed of core with a refractive index inferior to the refractive index of cladding.
I use comsol 4.3 3d.
I use RF module-> electromagnetic wave, frequency domain and I have done boundary mode analysis and I have results of the modes in the boundary but I can't have modes inside the waveguide.
Please help me.
Thank you.

Hello,
My waveguide is an optical fiber (two cylinder), the cladding refractive index is 1.44 and the core refractive index is 1.45 at 1550 nm. I have two port one for the excitation and another for absorbing.
I want to know how to see the propagation of the electic field in the fiber.
