Planar Electromagnetic Propagation of a Circularly Polarized Wave Across Achiral/Chiral and Chiral/Achiral Interfaces using Fresnel Coefficients

Propagation across chiral interfaces are studied for incident electromagnetic plane waves with right circular polarization, Propagation across a purely achiral interface is first reviewed, followed by analyses for an achiral/chiral interface, and finally a chiral/achiral interface. The analysis consists of deriving corresponding Fresnel coefficients for reflection and transmission, and comparison between the two chiral interfaces.)
