摘要
An analysis of hybrid modes in a rectangular waveguide filled with chiral material is presented in this paper. The modal wavenumbers are computed using the finite difference method together with Mullers root-finding algorithm, A novel scheme is presented whereby the validity of the numerical solution is established with analytical results. Using this numerical methodology, the existence of complex modes for a rectangular chiral waveguide is confirmed. Other notable features such as mode bifurcation and low frequency effects of chirality are also discussed.
