Abstract

Electromagnetic scattering from three-dimensional chiral objects above a perfectly electric or magnetic conducting plane (PEC and PMC) is analyzed by the hybrid finite element-boundary integral (FEM-BI) method. The chiral image principle is used to transform the original single chiral target in half space into two chiral targets with the same permittivity and permeability yet conjugate chirality parameters. Numerical examples demonstrate that the FEM-BI method provides a flexible and powerful solution of multiple scattering from inhomogeneous chiral objects. Both near field distribution and radar cross section (RCS) of chiral objects illuminated by plane waves are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the hybrid method.
