A Route to Pure Optical Rotation in Self-Assembled Materials through Energetic Non-Degeneracy
Daniel J. Gracias, Thomas J. Ugras, Richard D. Robinson
Achieving large optical rotation with minimal ellipticity and absorption, 'pure' optical rotation, remains a central challenge in chiral photonics. Solution-processed self-assemble…
