Abstract
In this paper, we derive a novel eigenvalue equation of double silica layers on silicon only for TE mode and present the method as an example how to use it to determine the refractive indices and thicknesses with prism coupler. Our method to solve eigenvalue equation have good merit rather than [5] in that the equation is real and iteration parameters can be reduced from four to three. The average magnitude of the errors is less than $10^{-5}\~10^{-6}$ approximately
