In this paper, we propose the analytical and numerical analyses of multilayer photonic metamaterial slab optical waveguide structures with Kerr-type nonlinear cladding and substrate. The multiple-quantum-well (MQW) photonic metamaterial optical waveguide structure with Kerr-type nonlinear cladding and substrate was also analyzed. We can use the proposed method to study the multilayer optical metamaterial slab optical waveguide structure with the linear cladding and substrate.
