Abstract:
We develop a quantum theory based on macroscopic quantum electrodynamics to research the resonance energy transfer (RET) between a chiral donor and acceptor. It differs from the previous Green function approach which needs specific boundary conditions to obtain an analytical solution for calculating the RET rate. Our theory can combine the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method, which gives a simple and efficient semi-analytical approach, to evaluate the chiral RET rate in an arbitrary plasmonic nanosystem. Applying our theory to the systems of chiral molecules 3-methylcyclopentanone (3MCP) near the achiral/chiral plasmonic nanostructures, the RET process, which is divided into nondiscriminatory and discriminatory parts, is investigated. We find that plasmon will enhance both nondiscriminatory and discriminatory rates compared to the absence of plasmonic nanostructure, but the plasmon supported by chiral nanostructure contributes more to the discriminatory rate. The ratio of discriminatory to nondiscriminatory rates in the system consisting of 3MCP and chiral plasmonic structure is five-fold compared to the system consisting of 3MCP and achiral plasmonic structure. The phenomena can be attributed to the chiral electric-magnetic coupling. Our findings are important in understanding the achiral and chiral electric-magnetic interaction and designing chiral light-harvesting and sensing devices.

Abstract:
It is still a challenge to find a suitable method to fabricate a well-defined homochiral surface from achiral molecules, and one of the possible methods is to modify surfaces with organic molecular assemblies. Large-area chiral self-assembly nanostructures have been observed at room temperature by depositing ZnPc molecules on a Cu(111) surface. The growth process has been investigated. ZnPc molecules get adsorbed first at the terrace steps, and then extend over the lower terrace until the whole terrace is covered with ZnPc molecules; such growth process would be stopped when the self-assembly nanostructure run into a decorated upper terrace step edge. We found that the terrace steps with specific directions with respect to the close-packed directions of the substrate can induce homochiral self-assembly on the lower terraces. So we can propose a possible way to fabricate a well-defined homochiral surface from achiral organic molecules.

Abstract:
As chiral antennas, plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) can enhance chiral responses of chiral materials by forming hybrid structures and improving their own chirality preference as well. Chirality-dependent properties of plasmonic NPs broaden application potentials of chiral nanostructures in the biomedical field. Herein, we review the wet-chemical synthesis and self-assembly fabrication of gold-NP-based chiral nanostructures. Discrete chiral NPs are mainly obtained via the seed-mediated growth of achiral gold NPs under the guide of chiral molecules during growth. Irradiation with chiral light during growth is demonstrated to be a promising method for chirality control. Chiral assemblies are fabricated via the bottom-up assembly of achiral gold NPs using chiral linkers or guided by chiral templates, which exhibit large chiroplasmonic activities. In describing recent advances, emphasis is placed on the design and synthesis of chiral nanostructures with the tuning and amplification of plasmonic circular dichroism responses. In addition, the review discusses the most recent or even emerging trends in biomedical fields from biosensing and imaging to disease diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract:
Abstract Optical metamaterials are widely used in electromagnetic wave modulation due to their sub-wavelength feature sizes. In this paper, a method to plate an achiral nanopillar array with chiral coating by the secondary effect in focused ion beam induced deposition is proposed. Guided by the pattern defined in a bitmap with variable residence time, the beam scan strategy suppresses the interaction between adjacent nanostructures. A uniform chiral coating is formed on the target nanostructure without affecting the adjacent nanostructure, under carefully selected beam parameters and the rotation angle of the sample stage. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy results show that the chiral film has high purity metal, which enables the generation of localized surface plasmon resonances and causes the circular dichroism (CD) under circularly polarized light illumination. Finally, the tailorable CD spectrum of the coated array is verified by the finite difference time domain method.

Abstract:
Plasmonic nanostructures with achiral, but asymmetric shapes can exhibit chiro-optical phenomena at the nanoscale, given that the nanostructure-light interaction symmetry is broken. Such behaviour is defined as extrinsic chirality, and it is induced by properly arranging the experimental set-up. We show measurement techniques for extrinsic chirality in low-cost, asymmetric samples with nanostructures organized in metasurfaces. We employ widely tuneable chiro-optical characterization of transmission and reflection, as well as the circular polarization degree of the transmitted signal; near-infrared range (680-1080nm) and oblique incidence allow for the detection of resonant features in extrinsic chirality. Other, unconventional experiments use photo-thermal consequences of chirality governed absorption in metasurfaces. Photo-acoustic spectroscopy directly gives circular dichroism as a differential absorption of the left and right circular polarizations exciting the sample. Photo-deflection spectroscopy gives additional information of diffraction phenomena governed by the extrinsic chirality. We showed that these techniques can monitor the extrinsic chiral behaviour of the hybrid plasmonic metamaterials. Moreover, they can be used in combination with fluorescence-detected circular dichroism to measure the emission properties of fluorescent materials.

Abstract:
The dispersion of a chiral polymer in a polymerizable matrix can amplify the chirality of the material, and a helical conformation of the chiral material within the polymerized SU-8 excessively increased the circular dichroism. Here, we demonstrate the fabrication of three-dimensional nanostructures of chiral/achiral mixtures by two-photon lithography. The irradiation of light and annealing caused local changes in the chiral material and finally led to the enhancement of the optical properties. The demonstration of a photopatternable chiral material could expand the usage of optical materials for various applications.

Abstract:
We present a comprehensive review of recent developments in the field of chiral plasmonics. Significant advances have been made recently in understanding the working principles of chiral plasmonic structures. With advances in micro- and nanofabrication techniques, a variety of chiral plasmonic nanostructures have been experimentally realized; these tailored chiroptical properties vastly outperform those of their molecular counterparts. We focus on chiral plasmonic nanostructures created using bottom-up approaches, which not only allow for rational design and fabrication but most intriguingly in many cases also enable dynamic manipulation and tuning of chiroptical responses. We first discuss plasmon-induced chirality, resulting from the interaction of chiral molecules with plasmonic excitations. Subsequently, we discuss intrinsically chiral colloids, which give rise to optical chirality owing to their chiral shapes. Finally, we discuss plasmonic chirality, achieved by arranging achiral plasmonic particles into handed configurations on static or active templates. Chiral plasmonic nanostructures are very promising candidates for real-life applications owing to their significantly larger optical chirality than natural molecules. In addition, chiral plasmonic nanostructures offer engineerable and dynamic chiroptical responses, which are formidable to achieve in molecular systems. We thus anticipate that the field of chiral plasmonics will attract further widespread attention in applications ranging from enantioselective analysis to chiral sensing, structural determination, and in situ ultrasensitive detection of multiple disease biomarkers, as well as optical monitoring of transmembrane transport and intracellular metabolism.

Abstract:
The coordination of the chiral metalloporphyrin ([5,10,15,20-[4-([Formula: see text]-2-[Formula: see text]-octadecylamidoethyloxiphenyl]porphyrin] zinc (II)) and an achiral homologue to an amphiphilic block copolymer of poly(styrene-[Formula: see text]-4-vinyl pyridine) (PS-[Formula: see text]-P4VP) have been studied in solution and as cast material. The resulting chiral dye-polymer hybrid material has been accomplished via axial coordination between the zinc (II) metal ion in the core of the porphyrin ring and the pyridyl units of the block-copolymer in a non-coordinative solvent. The supramolecular organization and possible chirality transfer to the hybrid material have been studied in solution by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Circular Dichroism. The morphology of the chiral and achiral doped polymers has been studied in solid state by Transmission Electron Microscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy. We show that the nanostructures formed depend greatly upon the nature of the side-chains on the porphyrins, where a chiral group leads to a very homogeneous phase-separated material, perhaps indicating that chiral side groups are useful for the preparation of this type of supramolecular hybrid.

Abstract:
Chiral plasmonic nanostructures have emerged as promising objects for numerous applications in nanophotonics, optoelectronics, biosensing, chemistry, and pharmacy. Here, we propose a novel method to induce strong chirality in achiral ensembles of gold nanoparticles via irradiation with circularly-polarized light of a picosecond Nd:YAG laser. Embedding of gold nanoparticles into a nanoporous silicate matrix leads to the formation of a racemic mixture of metal nanoparticles of different chirality that is enhanced by highly asymmetric dielectric environment of the nanoporous matrix. Then, illumination with intense circularly-polarized light selectively modifies the particles with the chirality defined by the handedness of the laser light, while their “enantiomers” survive the laser action almost unaffected. This novel modification of the spectral hole burning technique leads to the formation of an ensemble of plasmonic metal nanoparticles that demonstrates circular dichroism up to 100 mdeg. An unforeseen peculiarity of the chiral nanostructures obtained in this way is that 2D and 3D nanostructures contribute almost equally to the observed circular dichroism signals. Thus, the circular dichroism is neither even nor odd under reversal of direction of light propagation. These findings will help guide the development of a passive optical modulator and nanoplatform for enhanced chiral sensing and catalysis.

Abstract:
Colloidal assembly into chiral superstructures is usually accomplished with templating or lithographic patterning methods that are only applicable to materials with specific compositions and morphologies over narrow size ranges. Here, chiral superstructures can be rapidly formed by magnetically assembling materials of any chemical compositions at all scales, from molecules to nano- and microstructures. We show that a quadrupole field chirality is generated by permanent magnets caused by consistent field rotation in space. Applying the chiral field to magnetic nanoparticles produces long-range chiral superstructures controlled by field strength at the samples and orientation of the magnets. Transferring the chirality to any achiral molecules is enabled by incorporating guest molecules such as metals, polymers, oxides, semiconductors, dyes, and fluorophores into the magnetic nanostructures.

Abstract:
We report a computational study at the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) level of the chiro-optical spectra of chiral gold nanowires coupled in dimers. Our goal is to explore whether it is possible to overcome destructive interference in single nanowires that damp chiral response in these systems and to achieve intense plasmonic circular dichroism (CD) through a coupling between the nanostructures. We predict a huge enhancement of circular dichroism at the plasmon resonance when two chiral nanowires are intimately coupled in an achiral relative arrangement. Such an effect is even more pronounced when two chiral nanowires are coupled in a chiral relative arrangement. Individual component maps of rotator strength, partial contributions according to the magnetic dipole component, and induced densities allow us to fully rationalize these findings, thus opening the way to the field of plasmonic CD and its rational design.

A special naphthyl-containing Schiff base derivative,N,N′-bis(2-hydroxy-1-naphthylidene)-1,2-phenylenediamine, was synthesized, and its coordination with various metal ions in situ at the air/water interface has been investigated. Although the ligand contains no alkyl chain, it can be spread on water surface. When metal ions existed in the subphase, an interfacial coordination between the ligand and different metal ions occurred in the spreading film, while different Nanostructures were fabricated in the monolayers. Interestingly to note that among various metal ions, only the in situ coordination-induced Cu(II)-complex film showed supramolecular chirality, although the multilayer films from the ligand or preformed complex are achiral. The chirality of the in situ Cu(II)-coordinated Langmuir film was developed due to the special distorted coordination reaction and the spatial limitation at the air/water interface. A possible organization mechanism at the air/water interface was suggested.

Abstract:
Metasurfaces offer compact routes to spatial and polarization control of luminescence from nearby emitters. The most common integration strategy is to coat a patterned metamaterial or metasurface with a film of light emitting material. For example, structures such as arrays of Au nanorods coated with achiral light emitters exhibit circularly polarized photoluminescence at specific outcoupled angles. However, the degree of circular polarization in these systems is limited to relatively low values, and does not coincide with the angles with high photoluminescence intensity. This talk will discuss an alternative strategy, where the light emitters are patterned instead. We show that this structure offers several advantages: rather than averaging over the contributions of emitters in many different locations, this system exhibits highly directional photoluminescence with high degrees of circular polarization. Most importantly, the photoluminescence intensity is high at the same angles where the degree of circular polarization is high. These patterned light-emitting nanostructures are formed using direct-write electron beam lithography on semiconductor nanocrystals. This versatile method is capable of forming structures with aspect ratios greater than 2 and feature sizes as small as 30 nm, photoluminescence is retained after patterning, and the system is robust to multiple patterning steps.

Abstract:
Silver p-tolylacetylide is an achiral molecule; however, its nanostructure has been found to consist of twisted nanoribbons. The twisted ribbon is a helicoid that combines translation and perpendicular rotation along the ribbon axis. A helix, a typical chiral structure, can be created by the aggregation of achiral molecules, and the recrystallization conditions control the twist of the nanoribbons. Therefore, the recrystallization controls the chirality.

Abstract:
Chiral plasmonic nanostructures, which would be applied to enantioselective sensors and metasurfaces, can be prepared in an enantioselective manner by irradiation with circularly polarized light (CPL). However, their resonance sites have been covered with non-plasmonic, dielectric moieties. Here, we prepared all-silver chiral plasmonic nanostructures on a glass plate in one-step by irradiating 380–450 nm right- or left-CPL to an aqueous solution containing Ag+ and citrate ions. Achiral or racemic Ag nanoparticles with anisotropic geometry are deposited on a glass plate by photochemical electron transfer from citrate to Ag+ in the initial phase. The deposited nanoparticles are grown into chiral structures under CPL via generation of an electric field with chiral distributions. An achiral Ag nanoplate array was also grown under 600–700 nm CPL into chiral nanostructure arrays on the basis of hot electron reduction of Ag+.

Abstract:
Enantiomer sorting greatly promotes the advancement of chemistry, bioscience, and medicine while also facing significant challenges. Recently, all-optical solutions have attracted considerable interest due to their non-invasiveness. While, it should be noted that the achiral optical force is always much larger than the chiral gradient force that plays a key role in all-optical enantiomer sorting, hindering the separation of enantiomers. Previously proposed methods to boost the chiral gradient forces by plasmonic and photonic nanostructures are often accompanied by the enhancement of achiral optical forces. The sorted chiral particles are also difficult to be transferred from the complex nanostructures. Here, we propose an approach for separating enantiomers using uniform light field formed by two waves, which is capable of sorting deep sub-wavelength chiral particles. In our method, the chiral particles can be sorted within a simple planar structure while the achiral gradient force is equal to zero. Our research reveals a promising perspective on large-scale sorting for enantiomers.

Abstract:
Abstract Large optical chirality in the vicinity of achiral high-index dielectric nanostructures has been recently demonstrated as useful means of enhancing molecular circular dichroism. We theoretically study the spatial dependence of optical chirality enhancement in the vicinity of high-index dielectric nanodisks and highlight its importance for the design of nanophotonic platforms for circular dichroism enhancement. Using a T-matrix framework, we demonstrate that, depending on the disk aspect ratio, chirality is enhanced preferentially along different directions. We employ various statistical procedures, including surface, volume and orientation averaging, to predict enhancement of chiroptical effects and show that optimal properties of a nanostructure depend substantially on whether spatial maximum or average chirality enhancement is sought after. The results indicate that at times it is beneficial to sacrifice helicity preservation for a larger field enhancement. Similarly, the optimal choice of the nanostructure is influenced by presence of a substrate, which limits the space available to be occupied by analyte molecules and impacts the optical chirality in the vicinity of the nanostructure.

Abstract:
Due to their broken symmetry, chiral plasmonic nanostructures have unique optical properties and multiple applications. However, there is still a lack of comprehension about how chirality transfer between circularly polarized light (CPL) and these structures occurs. Here, we thoroughly investigate the plasmon‐assisted growth of chiral nanoparticles from achiral Au nanocubes (AuNCs) via CPL without the involvement of any chiral molecule stimulators. We identify the structural chirality of our synthesized chiral plasmonic nanostructures by using circular differential scattering (CDS) spectroscopy correlated with scanning electron microscopy imaging at both the single‐particle and ensemble levels. Theoretical simulations, including hot‐electron surface maps, reveal that the plasmon‐induced chirality transfer is mediated by the asymmetric distribution of hot electrons on achiral AuNCs under CPL excitation. Furthermore, we shed light on how this plasmon‐induced chirality transfer can also be utilized for chiral growth in bimetallic systems, such as Ag or Pd on AuNCs. Results presented here reveal fundamental aspects of chiral light‐matter interaction, influencing the future design and optimization of chiral sensors and chiral catalysis, among others.

Abstract:
AbstractAchiral solvents are commonly utilized to induce the self‐assembly of chiral molecules. This study demonstrates that achiral solvents can trigger helicity inversion in the assemblies of dansyl amphiphiles and control the excited‐state “majority rule” in assemblies composed of pure enantiomers, through variation of the cosolvent ratio. Specifically, enantiomers of dansyl amphiphiles self‐assemble into helical structures with opposite handedness in methanol (MeOH) and acetonitrile (MeCN), together with inversed circular dichroism and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) signals. When a mixture of MeOH and MeCN is employed, the achiral cosolvents collectively affect the CPL of the assemblies in a way similar to that of “mixed enantiomers”. The dominant cosolvent governs the CPL signal. As the cosolvent composition shifts from pure MeCN to MeOH, the CPL signals undergo a significant inversion and amplification, with two maxima observed at ≈20% MeOH and 20% MeCN. This study deepens the comprehension of how achiral solvents modulate helical nanostructures and their excited‐state chiroptical properties.
