Abstract
In this paper, possibilities of wave focussing by a birefringent left-handed lens are discussed. It is shown that such lenses can focus either TE or TM polarized waves or both of them, with a varying distance between TE and TM images, and this property allows expanding the applicability limits of the perfect lenses.
