  • Abstract
    Polarization transformation of plane waves propagating in twisted anisotropic media is studied theoretically and numerically. It is shown that rotation of linear polarization is effected by such a medium when the anisotropy is of the order of 2 to 1 and twist rates commensurate with the relative value of the dielectric constants of the medium are used (less than 15°/λ0 for low dielectric constants and up to 90°/λ0 for dielectrics in the vicinity of 1000).
