Spectral Remittances of Chiral Sculptured Zirconia Thin Films in Non-axial propagation

Abstract
The transmission and reflection spectra from a right-handed chiral sculptured zirconia thin film are calculated using the piecewise homogeneity approximation method and the Bruggeman homogenization formalism and considering that the dispersion of dielectric function happens in non-axial propagation state. First and second Bragg peaks were observed in cross-poloraized reflectances and it became clear that increasing the azimutal angle affects the spectra of linearly polarized state significantly. This is opposite to circularly polarized state.
