Abstract: A theoretical investigation has been carried out to analyze the
transmission of electromagnetic field through a slab of quadric inhomogeneous
chiral medium. The transmission coefficients at dielectric-chiral and
chiral-dielectric interfaces are derived analytically. The transmitted
electromagnetic field expressions have been obtained using Maslov's method. The
derived analytical field expressions at caustic or focal point of quadratic
inhomogeneous chiral slab have been solved numerically using MATHEMATICA. The
result obtained using Maslov's method are compared with Hyugen Kirchhoff's
integral which are in good agreement.
Keywords: High frequency, Maslov's method, chiral, quadratic, caustic
