In this study, we investigate the nonlinear optical phenomena emerging from the interaction of vortex and vector beams with achiral nanoparticles or nanostructures. We reveal the conditions under which linear or nonlinear dichroism can be…
Circular dichroism (CD) caused by the response of a chiral object to circularly polarized light has been well established, and the strong CD of plasmonic meta-molecules has also become of interest in recent years; however, their response if…
We demonstrate that electric-dipole scatterers can mimic chiral light-matter interaction by generating far-field circular polarization upon scattering, even though the optical chirality of the incident field as well as that of the scattered…
Recent efforts in the field of surface-enhanced spectroscopies have focused on the paradigm of superchirality, entailing the engineering of the local electromagnetic fields to boost the enantiospecific interaction between light and chiral…
Two-dimensional lattices of chiral nanoholes in a plasmonic film with lattice constants being slightly larger than light wavelength are proposed for effective control of polarization and spatial properties of light beams. Effective…
Advanced photonic nanostructures have enabled the maximization of synthetic chiroptic activities. The unique structuring of these building blocks has empowered chiral selective interactions with electromagnetic waves in plasmonic structures…
Dark-field illumination is shown to make planar chiral nanoparticle arrangements exhibit circular dichroism in extinction analogous to true chiral scatterers. Circular dichrosim is experimentally observed at the maximum scattering of single…
The enhancement of the inherently weak optical activity of solvated molecules by superchiral fields, crucial for detecting their chirality, is a research frontier of photonics and the basis of novel chiroptical detection schemes. Here, we…
Whether or not chiral interaction exists between the optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) and a chiral molecule remains unanswered. So far, such an interaction has not been observed experimentally. Here we present a T-matrix method to…
The optical properties of some nanomaterials can be controlled by an external magnetic field, providing active functionalities for a wide range of applications, from single-molecule sensing to nanoscale nonreciprocal optical isolation.…
Sometimes it appears, sometimes it does not. We present a theoretical study of circular dichroism in the second-harmonic signal of single dielectric nanostructures with different symmetries and noncentrosymmetric materials. We show that…
Structured light enables the characterization of chirality of optically small nanoparticles by taking advantage of the helicity maximization concept recently introduced in[1]. By referring to fields with nonzero helicity density as chiral…
Optimally-chiral electromagnetic fields with maximized helicity density, recently introduced in [1], enable chirality characterization of optically small nanoparticles. Here, we demonstrate a technique to obtain optimally-chiral nearfields…
The interaction between intense light-matter not only promotes emerging applications in quantum and nonlinear optics but also facilitates changes in material properties. Plasmons can significantly enhance not only molecular chirality but…
Circular dichroism (CD) is absorption difference of right-hand and left-hand circularly polarized light by components. CD spectroscopy technique is an important tool for detecting molecular chirality, but the molecular circular dichroism…
Spectroscopic techniques that are sensitive to molecular chirality are important analytical tools to quantitatively determine enantiomeric excess and purity of chiral molecular samples. Many chiroptical processes however produce weak…
Mirror symmetry is among the most fundamental concepts of physics and its spontaneous breaking at the molecular level allows chiral molecules to exist in two enantiomers that are mirror images of each other. The majority of chiro-optical…
We show that a nonchiral atom can act as an antenna to induce a photoelectron circular dichroism in a nearby chiral molecule in a three-step process: The donor atom (antenna) is initially resonantly excited by circularly polarized…
Conventional linear optical activity effects are widely used for studying chiral materials. However, poor contrast and artifacts due to sample anisotropy limit the applicability of these methods. Here we demonstrate that nonlinear…
We report here chiroptical amplification effect occurring in the hybrid systems consisting of chiral molecules and Si nanostructures. Under resonant excitation of circularly polarized light, the hybrid systems show strong CD induction…
