Abstract

Splitting of a linearly polarized electromagnetic Gaussian beam into two opposite circularly polarized Gaussian beams by a chiral prism is investigated. The prism is made of homogeneous chiral material and has an isosceles triangle base with angles - It is shown that by proper choice of chirality in relation to the splitted beams can be made to emerge from different faces of the prism with small crosspolarization ratio.
