Microwave-absorbing chiral composites: Is chirality essential or accidental?
Suspensions of wire helices are absorbing at microwave frequencies. Although such suspensions are chiral, this may be accidental rather than essential for absorption in coatings. Nonchiral suspensions of connected loop arrays behave similarly to suspensions of helices.
