Abstract Propagation characteristics of electromagnetic waves at the interface between an isotropic regular medium and a biaxially anisotropic gyrotropic medium are investigated. The results indicate that the reflection and refraction properties of electromagnetic waves are closely dependent on the dispersion relation of the gyrotropic media, and that anomalous total reflection and negative refraction may occur. The existence conditions of total transmission are also considered. It is found that total transmission arises when the TE-polarized incident waves are normal to the interface and the physical parameters of the two media are chosen properly, which are quite different from the existence conditions of total transmission at the anisotropic left-handed material interface. Numerical results are given to validate our theoretical analysis.
