Re∞ection of electromagnetic plane wave from a planar chiral nihility-chiral nihility interface is calculated as a special case of two difierent chiral media by assuming that permittivities and permeabilities of the both media approach to zero. That is, †i ! 0, "i ! 0, and chiralitiesi 6 0, i = 1;2. These results are used to flnd the geometrical optics re∞ected flelds of a cylindrical chiral nihility- chiral nihility interface, when it is excited by a plane wave. Using the Maslov's method, fleld expression which yields flnite values around the focus of cylindrical interface is also determined.
