Abstract :
We demonstrated a reciprocal planar chiral metamaterials in the THz spectral regime exhibiting asymmetric electromagnetic transmission in opposite propagation directions for circular polarization. We also measured dichroism for counter propagating linear polarized light, which is identical with measured dichroism from its mirror image.
