Abstract: | The formulations of reflection coefficients for metal-backed one- and multi-layered chiral microwave absorbing coatings are derived in a much straight way in this paper. It is found that the propagation of normally incident plane waves in chiral coatings can be treated as in their achiral counterparts if the intrinsic impedance and wavenumber of the achiral structure are replaced by their associated chiral impedance and average chiral wavenumber, respectively. From a practical point of view, examples of one- and two-layered chiral microwave absorbing coatings are given, and the effects of the real and imaginary parts of the chiral admittance on the antireflection characteristics are examined for the first time, the results show that with a appropriate complex chiral admittance, the reduction in reflection can be enhanced and the minimum-reflection-frequency can be controlled. |
