In this article a spectral-domain decoupling method of electromagnetic waves propagating and radiating of sources in bianisotropic gyroelectromagnetic chiral media is presented, and the general transmission-line-like equations for the description of field quantities (IE, VE, VM, IM) are obtained using the technique of matrix transformation, which has been developed by Tsalamengas. As a practical application, the propagation behavior of electromagnetic waves in multilayered bianisotropic gyroelectromagnetic parallel-plate chirowaveguides is investigated, and it is shown that in such a nonreciprocal chirowaveguide, propagating modes are always hybrid (EH and HE). Especially, the dyadic Green's function of sources in a grounded bianisotropic gyroelectromagnetic chiral superstrate-substrate structure is derived, and it can be directly used to analyze the radiation characteristics of gyroelectromagnetic chirostrip antennas.

We analyze the coupled-mode propagation in planar gyrotropic chirowaveguides. At first, the transverse components of electric and magnetic fields in such waveguides are expressed in terms of the longitudinal components of E and H. Dispersion diagrams for the parallel metallic-plate gyrotropic chirowaveguides are shown, and their novel features are pointed Out. The effects of chirality admittances on the cutoff wavelengths of propagating modes in the grounded planar and parallel metallic-plate gyrotropic chirowaveguides are taken into consideration.

The electromagnetic properties of radially stratified spherical chirolenses are examined using the dyadic Green's function, and a general formulation is presented for determining the focal points of inhomogeneous spherical chirolenses. Also, the focal points of Luneberg chirolenses are calculated. It is shown that chirality admittance has strong influence on the location of focal points. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
