Reflection and Refraction of Plane Waves at an Interface of Mirror-Conjugate Chiral Media

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

We consider reflection and refraction of plane electromagnetic waves by a plane interface of mirror-conjugate isotropic chiral media for differently assigned incident fields. Relationships between the reflection or refraction coefficients, the common angle of incidence, and the physical parameters of the interfacing media are adduced and discussed.
