چکیده
Measuring Chirality Upon illumination with laser light (in red), chiral silver nanoparticles in the glass cuvette emit third harmonic scattered blue), whose intensity depends on chirality, as described article number 2100235 by Ventsislav K. Valev and co-workers. The background image is a panning shot of lab, representing long sequence experiments to demonstrate new physical effect.

Rayleigh scattering in few-mode optical fibers
The extremely low loss of silica fibers has enabled the telecommunication revolution, but single-mode fiber-optic communication systems have been driven to their capacity limits. As a means to overcome this capacity crunch, space-division multiplexing (SDM) using few-mode fibers (FMF) has been proposed and demonstrated. In single-mode optical fibers, Rayleigh scattering serves as the dominant m...
متن کاملSpontaneous inelastic Rayleigh scattering in optical fibers.
Rayleigh scattering (RS) adds noise to signals that are transmitted over optical fibers and other optical waveguides. This noise can be the dominant noise source in a range between 10 Hz and 100 kHz from the carrier and can seriously degrade the performance of optical systems that require low close-in noise. Using heterodyne techniques, we demonstrate that the backscattered close-in noise spect...
متن کاملMetamaterials: optical activity without chirality.
We report that the classical phenomenon of optical activity, which is traditionally associated with chirality (helicity) of organic molecules, proteins, and inorganic structures, can be observed in artificial planar media which exhibit neither 3D nor 2D chirality. We observe the effect in the microwave and optical parts of the spectrum at oblique incidence to regular arrays of nonchiral subwave...
متن کاملRayleigh-Debye scattering with focused laser beams.
A focused beam technique has been developed for diagnosing the characteristics of individual particles within a polydisperse ensemble. In the Rayleigh-Debye approximation the scattered fields are related to the orientation and properties of a scatterer by means of explicit analytic formulas. The results simplify when the particle size is small compared to the minimum beam diameter.
متن کاملMagneto - chiral scattering of light : a new optical manifestation of chirality
We have investigated multiple scattering of light in systems subject to magneto-chiral (MC) effects. Our medium consists of magneto-optically active dipoles placed in a chiral geometry under the influence of an external magnetic field. We have calculated, for the first time, the total and the differential scattering MC cross sections of this system, explicitely showing that they are proportiona...
