Abstract :
Two classes of dielectric wedges with a common edge are considered. For a certain direction of incidence and polarization of the primary plane wave, conditions are given under which total transmission occurs at all interfaces, i.e., the edge does not scatter and geometrical optics is the exact solution to the boundary value problem
