Experimental investigation of circular Bragg phenomenon exhibited by a mirror-backed chiral sculptured thin film

arXiv:1509.02566 · doi:10.1117/1.JNP.9.090599

Abstract

Experimentation with obliquely incident light established that all four circular reflectances of a chiral sculptured thin film backed by a metallic mirror contain strong evidence of the circular Bragg phenomenon. When the mirror is removed, strong evidence of that phenomenon is found only in the spectrum of the co-polarized and co-handed reflectance.
