    Notes: Abstact We describe a numerical method devised to calculate the lower-order modes of optical waveguides with two-dimensional transverse index profiles. This method is based on finite-difference approximation of the scalar wave equation and the minimization of the error in the field shape of a mode. The field correction method can be applied to waveguides with large index steps and generates the mode's scalar propagation constant and its field. To test the field correction method, it is applied to a three-layer optical fibre and the results are compared with exact solutions. The error in the calculations of the modal effective indices is found to be of the order of 10-6. Example mode calculations are given for fused couplers and rib waveguides.

    Notes: Summary Spatial extent and duration of the functional blockade elicited by intracerebral injection of tetrodotoxin (TTX) was examined in rats anesthetized with pentobarbital. Pupillary diameter was measured under dissecting microscope before and up to 24 h after injection of TTX (10 ng/l μl saline) into or 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mm lateral from the Edinger-Westphal nucleus. TTX administration elicited mydriasis the latency of which was directly and amplitude indirectly proportional to the target-injection distance. The maximum mydriasis attained 3.4 mm, lasted 2 h and slowly decayed over subsequent 20 h. Impulse transmission and conduction was blocked in a spherical volume of tissue about 3 mm in diameter the development of which could be approximated by diffusion from an instantaneous point source. Completeness and full reversibility make the TTX block a convenient research tool.
