Quasi-crystals are intriguing as they exhibit rotational symmetry and long range ordering but lack translational symmetry. 2-dimensional metal-dielectric patterns are interesting to make use of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) mediated local…
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) carry transverse optical spin within the evanescent field, which has enabled the demonstration of various chiral light-matter interactions in classical and quantum systems. To achieve high spin selectivity…
Chirality refers to a geometric phenomenon in which objects are not superimposable on their mirror image. Structures made of nano-scale chiral elements can display chiroptical effects, such as dichroism for left- and right- handed…
The origin and function of chirality in DNA, proteins, and other building blocks of life represent a central question in biology. Observations of spin polarization and magnetization associated with electron transport through chiral…
Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) refers to the fact that electrons get spin polarized after passing through organic chiral molecules in a nanoscale device. In CISS, chiral molecules are commonly believed to be a spin filter through…
Chiral-Induced Spin Selectivity (CISS) describes the emergence of spin-polarized electron transport in chiral systems without magnetic fields, a remarkable effect in light-element materials with weak intrinsic spin-orbit coupling (SOC).…
Efficient chirality sorting is now highly demanded to separate assembled mesoscopic chiral structures which are of very special physical properties rather than their achiral counterparts or those at the single-particle level. However, the…
Unidirectional surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at the interface between a gyrotropic medium and a simple medium are studied in a newly-recognized frequency regime wherein the SPPs form narrow, beam-like patterns due to hyperbolic…
We examine spin-resolved photoionization of randomly oriented chiral molecules via circularly polarized light, and revisit earlier predictions of Cherepkov (J. Phys. B: Atom. Mol. Phys. 16, 1543, 1983). We will show that the dynamical…
Controlling the directionality of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) has been widely studied, while the direction of SPPs was always switched by orthogonal polarizations in the reported methods. Here, we present a scheme to control the…
Chiral matter acting as a spin-selective device in biased electron transport is attracting attention for the quantum-technological design of miniaturized electronics. To date, however, experimental reports on spin selectivity are not…
Linear Maxwell equations for transverse magnetic (TM) polarized fields support single frequency surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) localized at the interface of a metal and a dielectric. Metals are typically dispersive, i.e. the dielectric…
Spin-orbit coupling gives rise to a range of spin-charge interconversion phenomena in non-magnetic systems where certain spatial symmetries are reduced or absent. Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS), a term that generically refers to…
Chirality and topology are intimately related fundamental concepts, which are heavily explored to establish spin-textures as potential magnetic bits in information technology. However, this ambition is inhibited since electrical reading of…
Chiral induced spin selectivity is a phenomenon that has been attributed to chirality, spin-orbit interactions, and non-equilibrium conditions, while the role of electron exchange and correlations have been investigated only marginally…
In condensed matter physics, a broad spectrum of physical characteristics, such as chirality, axiality, and polarity, arises as a direct consequence of the underlying symmetry of the system. We here theoretically investigate the effective…
Chirality refers to the asymmetry of objects that cannot be superimposed on their mirror image. It is a concept that exists in various scientific fields and has profound consequences. Although these are perhaps most widely recognized within…
Light scattering from chiral plasmonic structures can create near fields with an asymmetry greater than the equivalent circularly polarised light, a property sometimes referred to as superchirality. These near fields with enhanced chiral…
Coupling between light and material excitations underlies a wide range of optical phenomena. Polaritons are eigenstates of a coupled system with hybridized wave function. Owing to their hybrid composition, polaritons exhibit at the same…
We investigate the dispersion properties of the acoustic surface waves on surface of elastic metamaterials. With an analytical approach, we show that unconventional acoustic surface waves, with dispersion behaviors very similar to the…
