Abstract :
The discrete complex image method (DCIM) is applied to compute the complete set of the mixed-potential integral equation (MPIE) kernels for planar multilayers with uniaxial anisotropy. It is assumed that the layered medium is of infinite lateral extent and the optic axis is normal to the stratification. Sample results are presented for a structure comprising positive- and negative-uniaxial layers and are shown to be in excellent agreement with reference data.
