In plasmonic chirality, the phenomenon of circular dichroism for achiral nanoparitcles caused by Coulomb interaction between metal nanoparticles (NPs) and chiral molecules have been studied. At the same time, under the resonance condition,…
The chiral state of a molecule plays a crucial role in molecular recognition and biochemical reactions. Because of this and owing to the fact that most modern drugs are chiral, the sensitive and reliable detection of the chirality of…
Chiroptical effects using circularly polarized light produce signals that change sign when switching either molecular handedness (enantiosensitivity) or the light helicity (circular dichroism). Here, we break this…
The theory to calculate circular dichroism (CD) of chiral molecules in a finite cluster with arbitrarily disposed objects has been developed by means of T-matrix method. The interactions between chiral molecules and nanostructures have been…
Photoinduced force microscopy (PiFM) enables nanoscale visualization of optical responses by directly detecting photoinduced forces without relying on luminescence. In molecular assemblies, intermolecular polarization coupling can generate…
The detection and discrimination of molecular chirality are essential for advancing pharmaceutical and biological applications. While nanophotonic platforms offer a route to enhance chiral light-matter interactions, existing device concepts…
Chiral nanostructures offer the ability to respond to the vector nature of a light beam at the nanoscale. While naturally chiral materials offer a path towards scalability, engineered structures offer a path to wavelength tunability through…

Circular dichroism, arising from interactions with light fields of opposite spin angular momentum, has become a fundamental tool for molecular characterization. Meanwhile, helical dichroism (HD) - the dichroic response to vortex beams…
Recently, Tang and Cohen (Science 332, 333, 2011) have demonstrated a scheme to enhance the chiral response of molecules, which relies on the use of circularly polarized light in a standing wave configuration. Here we show a new type of…
The plasmonic chirality has drawn a lot of attention because of the tunable circular dichroism (CD) and the enhancement for the signal of chiral molecules. Different mechanisms have been proposed for explaining the plasmonic CD, however, a…
We introduce a microscopy technique that facilitates the prediction of spatial features of chirality of nanoscale samples by exploiting photo-induced optical force exerted on an achiral tip in the vicinity of the test specimen. The…
Chiral light-matter interactions can enable polarization to control the direction of light emission in a photonic device. Most realizations of chiral light-matter interactions require external magnetic fields to break time-reversal symmetry…
Circular Dichroism (CD) can distinguish the handedness of chiral molecules. However, it is typically very weak due to vanishing absorption at low molecular concentrations. Here, we suggest Thermal Circular Dichroism (TCD) for chiral…
We discuss the possibility of enhancing the chiroptical response from molecules uniformly distributed around nanostructures that sustain localized plasmon resonances. We demonstrate that the average optical chirality in the near field of…

Chirality in inorganic nanoparticles and nanostructures has gained increasing scientific interest, because of the possibility to tune their ability to interact differently with left- and right-handed circularly polarized light. In some…
At optical frequencies, interactions of the electric field component of light with matter are dominating, whereas magnetic dipole transitions are inherently weak and challenging to access independently from electric dipole transitions.…
