Gyrotropic materials exhibit Epsilon negative media.

Gyrotropic materials exhibit Epsilon negative media. Correct Answer False

A gyrotropic or gyromagnetic material exhibits Mu – negative media which has a positive permittivity and negative permeability. The material has been modified by the presence of quasi – static magnetic field thus enabling the magneto – optic effect. The left and right rotating elliptical polarizations in these materials propagate at different speeds.
