摘要: We study the evolution of Airy beams in chiral media. numerically demonstrate that circularly polarized opposite handedness can be separated when traveling through The constructive interference near- and far-zone is explicitly analyzed by varying chirality parameter medium. It interesting to find self-acceleration beam sensitive term.
