Abstract:

Using six-vector formalism, the polarisability problem of a layered bi-anisotropic ellipsoid is solved. The polarisability six-dyadic is explicitly calculated for the case of a two-component ellipsoid where the core is fully bi-anisotropic but the shell and the environment are bi-isotropic at most. It is reasonably straightforward to include more bi-isotropic layers on the ellipsoid. The limitation of the analysis is that all ellipsoidal boundaries for the composite structure have to be confocal.
