Analysis of reflection from a novel anisotropic lossy medium characterized by particular material properties
In this paper, we investigate the reflection characteristics of a novel electric–magnetic uniaxial lossy medium, characterized by extreme material properties and having optic axis in a generic direction. The novelty of the medium is specified by particular material parameters: very large transverse and very small axial components of permittivity and permeability with respect to the optic axis of the medium. To study the reflection, we consider an interface between a simple isotropic medium and the uniaxial medium defined by the complex permittivity and permeability tensors.
