Özet

Chiral medium is commonly used in optics, microwave and millimeter-wave due to the possibility of manufacturing chiral materials. Mirrors, considered the most widespread of optical devices, are used for imaging, solar energy collection and in laser cavities. There are two types of mirrors, the well-known metallic ones and the more recent dielectric ones. In this paper, we describe chiral mirror as a structure consisting of an array of alternating chiral layers similar to dielectric mirrors. With this assumption, we construct chiral mirrors of varying parameters and investigate their behaviors for the case of normal incidence.
