Introduction In this chapter we discuss plane-wave propagation in a layered arbitrarily anisotropic media.One-dimensional (1D) arbitrary layered structure is usually formed by stacking together layers of several different materials with some specific thickness d and refractive index n as depicted on Fig.1. Figure 1. Arbitrary layered structure Nowadays layered photonic structures (LPSs) are key of optoelectronic and microwave devices such as, phased-array antennas, microcavities and mirrors [1,2], filters of xWDM systems [3], waveguide structures, photodetectors, sensors and others. In case of active devices the layered structures are usually used in form of superlattices [4-6], multiple quantum wells [7,8] and asymmetric multiple quantum wells [9]. Different kinds of materials are used today for design LPSs, such as linear and nonlinear [3,10] dielectric materials, anisotropic or bi-anisotropic materials [11], chiral media [12], metamate‐ rials [13], etc. If one use these materials one can effectively control emission, propagation and © 2013 Fesenko et al.; licensee InTech.
