Summary:
The interface between an isotropic medium and a general uniaxial anisotropic medium is considered in different particular cases. A new boundary condition for the electromagnetic field is studied. It requires the cancellation of both the electric and the magnetic fields along a generic direction. The realization of this boundary condition is proposed by means of an exotic uniaxial medium: the properties of such medium are investigated. Possible applications of such media are analyzed.
