Abstract:
For a homogeneous anisotropic planar waveguide made solution of the Maxwell. We obtained fundamental matrices decision for the TE and TM waves in an anisotropic plane homogeneous layer. Was obtained the dependence of the phase shift of TM waves reflected from the boundaries of "anisotropic layer - isotropic medium" on the inclination angle the optical axis. The numerical solution of the dispersion equation TM waves in an anisotropic planar waveguide with different orientation of the optical axis in the plane of the wave. The asymptotic behavior of the dispersion curves was decided.

Key words:
planar waveguide, anisotropy, the Maxwell equations, the dispersion, total internal reflection, the phase shift of the reflection of light.
