摘要: The reflection from and transmission through a semi-infinite chiral medium are analyzed by obtaining the Fresnel equations in terms of parallel- perpendicular-polarized modes, comparison is made with results reported previously. described electromagnetically constitutive relations D = ∊E + iγB H iγE (1/μ)B. constants ∊, μ, γ real have values that fixed size, shape, spatial distribution elements collectively compose medium. conditions obtained for total internal incident wave interface existence Brewster angle. effects chirality on polarization intensity reflected half-space discussed illustrated using Stokes parameters. propagation electromagnetic waves an infinite slab formulated oblique incidence solved analytically case normal incidence.
