Abstract


In this paper we present a theoretical study of the plane waves in chiral media. The reflection from and transmission through a dielectric-chiral interface are analyzed. When a plane wave is incident upon a boundary between a dielectric and a chiral medium, it splits into two transmitted waves proceeding into the chiral medium and a reflected wave propagating back into the dielectric. The interface is made of chiral material and it is electromagnetically characterized with three material parameters: permittivity, permeability, and chirality. Due to chirality, there is magnetoelectric coupling. The electric and magnetic shielding effects are shown to be function of the three material parameters. We found that, at normal incidence, reflection is found to occur similar to that for the isotropic medium. The cross-polarization effects caused by the chirality will appear at oblique wave incidence.
