Perturbation theory for anisotropic dielectric interfaces, and application to subpixel smoothing of discretized numerical methods
We derive a correct first-order perturbation theory in electromagnetism for cases where an interface between two anisotropic dielectric materials is slightly shifted. Most previous perturbative methods give incorrect results for this case, even to lowest order, because of the complicated discontinuous boundary conditions on the electric field at such an …
