Abstract

The Maxwell curl postulates have been analyzed for propagation in the vertical microstructurally significant plane of a periodically bent nematic (PBN) medium. The ordinary modes are unaffected by the anisotropy and the periodic inhomogeneity of the PBN medium, but the extraordinary modes are. Simple expressions, applicable for small anisotropy parameters, have been found.
