International audienceThe Modal Method by Gegenbauer polynomials Expan- sion (MMGE) has been recently introduced for lamellar gratings by Edee [8]. This method shows a promising potential of outstanding convergence but still suffers from instabilities when the number of polynomials is increased. In this work, we identify the origin of these instabilities and propose a way to remove them
