PROPAGATION CHARACTERISTICS OF FULLY FILLED CHIROPLASMA CYLINDRICAL WAVEGUIDES

Using the longitudinal propagating field method, the transverse electromagnetic fields expressed by the longitudinal fields are derived under the cylindrical coordinate for the homogeneous chiroplasma waveguide. The wave equations for the longitudinal fields are also derived and solved. By applying the boundary conditions at the cylindrical metal surface, aeigenvalue equations is derived. Numerical results for various parameters are presented, and many meaningful results are obtained.
