Abstract
Simple equations are presented for polariton dispersion relations in anisotropic medium for an arbitrary direction of wave vector, where LT (longitudinal-transverse) mixed modes occur in general. The use of the polarizability tensor defined for pure external (not for the total) field is essentially important to obtain the simple result. The relation between all the tensor components of the polarizability and dielectric function is also explicitly given. The result can be used for any elementary excitations relevant to dielectric function. In the case of multi-component excitons of LT mixed mode character, the dispersion equation is rewritten in a matrix form, which is useful to obtain the allowed values of polariton wave vector for a given frequency.
