Abstract
Chirality may provide the coupling, and hence the conversion, between two eigen polarization modes: TE and TM modes. In this paper an analysis of mode interaction in chirowaveguides is realized, taking into account longitudinal components of polarization currents. Special consideration is given to so-called induced polarization effects which are caused by abrupt discontinuities of longitudinal polarization currents on the boundary of chiral–nonchiral media. Because of induced polarization effects, an asymmetry in mode coupling may take place. The method of investigation may be a powerful tool for the analysis of mode interactions due to both material and geometric effects.
