CHIRAL WAVES IN A METAMATERIAL MEDIUM ONDAS QUIRALES EN UN MEDIO METAMATERIAL
In this paper we study the anomalous refraction at the boundary of a metamaterial medium with strong chirality. The fact that for a time-harmonic monochromatic plane wave the direction of the Poynting vector is antiparallel with the direction of phase velocity, leads to exciting features that can be...

| Summary: | In this paper we study the anomalous refraction at the boundary of a metamaterial medium with strong chirality. The fact that for a time-harmonic monochromatic plane wave the direction of the Poynting vector is antiparallel with the direction of phase velocity, leads to exciting features that can be advantageous in the design of novel devices and components at microwaves frequencies.<br>En este trabajo se estudia la refracción anómala en el borde de un medio metamaterial con fuerte quiralidad. El hecho de que para una onda monocromática el vector de Poynting es antiparalelo a la dirección de la velocidad de fase conduce a relevantes propiedades que pueden tener ventajas en el diseño de novedosos dispositivos y componentes a frecuencias de microondas. |
