摘要
The equations for refraction of either the extraordinary wave of light or the wavefunction of an electron at a planar boundary between two misoriented uniaxially anisotropic materials are shown via raytracing to yield a transverse displacement of the object point. The displacement is independent of ray incidence angle and is thus free from spherical aberration, yielding a perfect virtual image which can have applications in birefringent optics. The general conditions for this aberration-free imaging are found to be identical to those required for amphoteric total refraction. (C) 2008 American Institute of Physics. [DOI: 10.1063/1.3005582]
