Abstract :
This paper discusses how material parameters of a chiral slab can be determined from the measured reflected and transmitted fields of the slab in free space. The method uses a so called K-notation in the constitutive relations of a chiral material. This allows one to derive analytical formulas for permittivity, permeability and chirality parameters of the measured material.
