Analysis and application of the electromagnetic wave propagation, fields, and dispersion relation in an elliptical chiro plasma waveguide immersed in magnetized plasma

Abstract

This research proposes and investigates an elliptical waveguide filled with chiro plasma as its core and magnetized plasma as its clad region. The clad region is in the constant infinite magnetic field, and its direction is the same as the wave propagation in the chiro plasma elliptical waveguide. The electromagnetic wave propagation in the considered waveguide is studied. The expressions for electromagnetic field components in the chiro plasma core and magnetized plasma cladding are derived. The dispersion relations for the hybrid modes are calculated considering appropriate boundary conditions at the chiro plasma and magnetized plasma interface. The behavior of the energy flux and the dispersion curves are numerically and graphically studied. It is seen that the magnitude of the power density decreases with the increase of the cyclotron frequency and it increases with the increase of the plasma frequency and supports power flow in the backward direction for the considered mode. Furthermore, it is shown higher values of the chirality parameter cause the magnitude of the power flux to increase in the backward direction.
