Description
Summary:In this paper, the propagation of electromagnetic waves through an infinite slab of uni- or bi- axial chiral medium is analytically formulated for an arbitrary incidence using 4×4 matrix method. In this powerful method, a state vector differential equation is extracted whose solution is given in terms of a transition matrix relating the tangential components of electric and magnetic fields at the input and output planes of the uni- or bi- axial chiral layer. The formulas of the reflection and transmission are then derived. Also, the presented method is verified by some typical examples and the results are compared with the results obtained by the other available methods.
