  • Abstract
    In this contribution, the effective properties from the dispersion relation are determined in particular chirality parameters. The applicability of an effective medium approach is also discussed. The dispersion relation is computed directly from Maxwell´s equations without further approximations. The dispersion relation is believes to be best suitable to describe the light propagation inside the structure.
