Description
On the basis of an exactly solvable model of 1D-Helmholtz equation it is considered reflectionless propagation of transverse electromagnetic wave of circular polarization through a chiral inhomogeneous isotropic plasma with small-scale structures of high amplitude. Considered spatial profiles of plasma-dielectric chiral environment characterized by a number of free parameters that determine the characteristic scales of these structures, the spatial profile of the wave vector and wave field, the modulation of the dielectric permittivity etc. The model parameters are corresponding plasma without a magnetic field but with a small addition of chiral component (circular polarization of wave is provided by chirality). Numerical calculations of the spatial profiles for the wave number, the wave amplitude, the dielectric permittivity of chiral plasma have been performed. For some choice of the model parameters the wave number profile corresponds to the increase of the wave amplitude in the center of plasma layer. Variants are possible when the dielectric permittivity in its minimum is negative one and the chiral plasma contains sufficiently broad areas of opacity. Profiles of the dielectric permittivity and the wave vector can be qualitatively similar.
