chirality (parameter of) :
Coefficient linking D to H and B to E (in chiral or bi-anisotropic media).
focused beam :
An electromagnetic wave whose power distribution is concentrated around the direction of propagation. These beams are obtained using electromagnetic lenses or metal mirrors.
Gaussian beam :
An electromagnetic wave whose power distribution around the direction of propagation follows a Gaussian distribution. Beams focused by lenses or mirrors are often Gaussian.
matrix S :
Diffraction matrix of an object subjected to an electromagnetic wave. This matrix links the incident, reflected and transmitted fields of the object.
cavity measurement :
