> Electromagnetic surface waves guided by the planar interface of an isotropic dielectric medium and a uniaxial dielectric medium, both non-dissipative, were considered, the optic axis of the uniaxial medium lying in the interface plane.

> A new type of electromagnetic surface wave—called a Dyakonov–Voigt (DV) surface wave—has been found theoretically.

So, still theoretical. Not observed experimentally yet.
