Robust chiral optical force via electric dipole interactions, inspired by a sea creature

Robert P. Cameron, Duncan McArthur, Alison M. Yao +2

Inspired by a sea creature, we identify a robust chiral optical force that pushes the opposite enantiomers of a chiral molecule towards regions of orthogonal linear polarization in…
