Annotation: Plane-layered structures of isotropic chiral conjugate slabs are characterized by the transfer matrix, which elements are found via multi plication of the matrices of interfaces and slabs sequence. Signs of chiral parameters, permittivities, permeabilities, and Beltrami wavenumbers differ for partial slabs. Classification of the chiral structures, which differ by the transfer matrix type, is given.

Keywords: chiral meta-materials, negative refraction, beltrami waves, multilayered structure, perfect lens, complementary media
