Optical Chirality Enhancement in Twisted Arrays of Plasmonic Nano-rods
An important property of electromagnetic fields, which arises from the interaction between fields and chiral molecules, is called optical chirality. By enhancing this field property, while maintaining constant input power, we are able to increase absorption of circularly polarized light by chiral molecules of a certain handedness. This enhancement is achieved through the use of achiral plasmoni...

متن کاملLight with enhanced optical chirality.
Tang and Cohen [Phys. Rev. Lett.104, 163901 (2010)] recently 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 light that possesses orbital angular momentum and enhanced chiral response. In the locations where the beams show enhanced optical chirality, only the lon...
متن کاملOptical chirality and its interaction with matter.
We introduce a measure of the local density of chirality of the electromagnetic field. This optical chirality determines the asymmetry in the rates of excitation between a small chiral molecule and its mirror image, and applies to molecules in electromagnetic fields with arbitrary spatial dependence. A continuity equation for optical chirality in the presence of material currents describes the ...
متن کاملCharacterizing optical chirality
We examine the recently introduced measure of chirality of a monochromatic optical field [Y. Tang and A. E. Cohen, Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 163901 (2010)] using the momentum (plane-wave) representation and helicity basis. Our analysis clarifies the physical meaning of the measure of chirality and unveils its close relation to the polarization helicity, spin angular momentum, energy density, and Po...
