Propagation of
electromagnetic wave (EW) through multilayer structure consisting anisotropic
layers with gradient refractive index material is studied theoretically. Analytical
solution for linear dependence of refractive index profile is examined. The
structure consist the forbidden gaps, which are sensitive to parameters of
refractive index profile.
