Abstract
An analysis is presented of frequency versus wave-vector dispersion in elliptically birefringent one-dimensional layered periodic structures. The presence of local normal mode polarization state variations from one layer to the next is found to lead to mode coupling and to affect the wave-vector dispersion and the character of the Bloch states of the system.
