Numerical Study of the Electromagnetic Behavior of Multilayer Chiral Honeycombs

Abstract

Honeycomb structures have been widely used in different sectors, such as aerospace, construction,packaging, etc., due to their mechanical properties. They also have been proposed in order to use their electromagnetic properties, for example, to perform metamaterial structures. In some cases, structures, which geometrically are chiral in a two-dimensional plane, have been used too. Some authors have studied their electromagnetic behavior, in order to check whether their structural chirality translates into chiral electromagnetic behavior with negative results.
