Abstract :
A 90/spl deg/-angle wedge that is isorefractive to the surrounding medium is considered. Under symmetrical incidence by two plane waves of appropriate amplitude, phase and polarization propagating in opposite directions, the edge of the wedge does not scatter and geometrical optics provides the exact solution to the boundary-value problem.
