Abstract
A stochastic theoretical analysis of electromagnetic wave propagation inside a planar slab waveguide filled with a cholesteric material, whose azimuthal angular component on its director n is randomly fluctuating is presented in this article. By means of van Kampen systematic expansion method, Maxwell's electromagnetic equations with random dielectric tensor and appropriate boundary conditions are obtained. As numerical examples, the effects of the randomness on the propagating constant, on the ratio between magnetic and electric modes, on the field profiles, and on the energy flow are presented and discussed. The results in this paper are consistent with those corresponding to the deterministic conventional waveguide.
