Abstract The reflection from and transmission characteristic of the plane waves are studied at the interface between media including chiral media. The co-polarized and cross-polarized reflection and transmission coefficients are derived from the chiral constitutive relations. Possible values of chirality admittance ζc are determined for fixed Brewster angles. In addition, the features of reflection and transmission in some typical cases including the normal inci dence case and that containing a mirror-conjugated medium are discussed in detail. For example, complex chiral parameters for minimal reflection coefficient in the case of normal incidence are optimized.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
