Abstract :
A new simple algorithm for calculation of 3D geometric chirality degree is constructed. The problem is considered in context of the electromagnetic waves diffraction on a periodic complex-shape elements structure. Dependences of the chirality degree for cylindrical spirals and tetrahedrons on their geometrical characteristics are demonstrated. The results are compared with calculations of the degree of circular polarization of wave scattered by randomly oriented structures.
