Mode Transformers for Soft and Hard Surface Waveguides by Using Chiral Material
Abstract
The field propagation in soft and hard surface waveguide, also called balanced corrugated waveguide, filled with chiral medium is considered. The eigenfields inside the waveguide are circularly polarized and are propagating separately. For small chirality parameter values the eigenfields are slightly coupled and the polarization of the propagating field is changed. This effect causes a mode transformation between TM and TE modes.
