Abstract

Using a technique borrowed from Idemen [1] and requiring the Fourier transform of the x, y-components of the electric and magnetic fields, we obtain the impedance boundary conditions for electromagnetic plane waves withh orizontal, vertical and arbitrary polarization incident on a infinite, smooth, chiral film located at z = 0 and deposited on a metallic substrate. As an application, we discuss the scattering of harmonic plane waves and of a finite beam on sucha film.
