Abstract

Although a monochromatic plane wave of a certain circular polarization state and wavelength may be almost completely reflected by a chiral sculptured thin film, we show here that information coded in rectangular pulses can still be transmitted across the film - provided the rise and fall times of the pulses are sufficiently small and the pulse widths are sufficiently large.
