contents This study explores the potential of a novel material platform combining Gallium Selenide (GaSe) with a \b{eta}-Ga2O3 substrate and Al2O3 cladding for advanced photonic waveguides. The numerical investigation of the optical performance of GaSe-based waveguides focuses on key parameters such as power confinement factor (PCF), propagation loss, and effective mode index for both of the modes of Transverse Electric (TE) as well as Transverse Magnetic (TM). The results demonstrate that the GaSe/Al2O3/\b{eta}-Ga2O3 waveguide exhibits excellent optical confinement, with PCF values exceeding 96% for both the TE and TM modes at a wavelength of 1.55 μm. The waveguide also shows low propagation losses, particularly for the TM mode, making it suitable for long-wavelength applications. Furthermore, the study highlights the impact of core dimensions and cladding height on waveguide performance, providing insights into optimizing the design for minimal loss and maximal efficiency that demonstrates the potential of III-VI compound-based waveguides. This treatise also focuses on the bending losses by varying the wavelength and bending radius for both of the TE and TM mode of the GaSe-based waveguide. The waveguide shows the reflecting loss of -25.08 dB and transmission loss of -5.97 dB for the bending radius of 2 μm and wavelength of 1.55 μm. This work underscores the potential of GaSe-based waveguides on a \b{eta}-Ga2O3 platform for next-generation photonic integrated circuits.
