The Circular Bragg Phenomenon Updated

arXiv:2407.12531 · doi:10.1007/978-3-031-83131-7_8

Abstract

The circular Bragg phenomenon is the circular-polarization-state-selective reflection of light in a spectral regime called the circular Bragg regime. In continuation of an expository review on this phenomenon published in 2014, an album of theoretical results is provided in this decadal update. Spectral variations of intensity-dependent and phase-dependent observable quantities in the reflection and transmission half-spaces are provided in relation to the polarization state and the direction of propagation of the incident plane wave.
