Abstract
A new procedure to extract all three constitutive parameters of chiral mate rial from waveguide measurements is presented, Two chiral slabs of differen t length must be measured, Their scattering parameters are inverted in a la rgely analytical way, complemented by a simple and fast convergent numerica l algorithm. Tests with synthetic scattering data show the method to be ver y. accurate and stable.
