This paper presents Green's functions for two-phase transversely isotropic magneto-electro-elastic media. These include the two-dimensional (2D) Green's functions of a two-phase infinite plane, from which the fundamental solutions of an infinite magneto-electro-elastic plane and an infinite half-plane can be easily derived, as well as 3D counterparts. All the results are obtained in an exact and explicit way, and hence, are very convenient to be used in the associated computation with boundary element method. Numerical examples are also given and the results agree well with the exact ones.
