Chiral Vector Beams for Topological Enantio-Sensitive Imaging

A. Rodriguez, J. Edginton, A. Löhr +7

Molecular chiral discrimination is vital across chemistry and life sciences, yet optical approaches remain highly inefficient for small organic molecules. Here we turn vector beams…

Photonic architectures for synthetic chiral light-driven chiral sensing

Alexander Löhr, Justas Terentjevas, Patricia Vindel-Zandbergen +6

Molecular chirality gives rise to left- and right-handed enantiomers whose balance underpins biochemical function. Deviations from this enantiomeric excess are promising biomarkers…

Direct Asymmetric Photochemistry with Synthetic Chiral Light

Jason B. Greenwood, Letizia Fede, Daniel García González +10

Circularly polarized light has long been used to distinguish the two mirror images of chiral molecules. Recently, a conceptual breakthrough has predicted that a new form of optical…

Roadmap on Attosecond Science

Rocio Borrego Varillas, Pierre Agostini, Fernando Ardana-Lamas +108

Twenty-five years have passed since the first experimental demonstration of attosecond pulses, marking the advent of our ability to resolve and control electron motion in real time…

A beat wave approach to harmonic generation in chiral media

Raoul Trines, Holger Schmitz, Robert Bingham +4

We extend the beat-wave framework for laser harmonic generation - where spectra form regular lattices in Fourier space - to the nonlinear response of isotropic chiral media driven…

Theory of Non-Dichroic Enantio-Sensitive Chiroptical Spectroscopy

Andrés Ordóñez, David Ayuso, Piero Decleva +4

We show that the photoelectron angular distributions produced by elliptical and cross-polarized two-color laser fields interacting with randomly oriented chiral molecules decompose…

Non-Dichroic Enantio-Sensitive Chiroptical Spectroscopy

Letizia Fede, Debobrata Rajak, Chris Sparling +8

Chiroptical effects using circularly polarized light produce signals that change sign when switching either molecular handedness (enantiosensitivity) or the light helicity (circula…

Geometry of chiral temporal structures I: Physical effects

Andres F. Ordonez, Aycke Roos, Pablo M. Maier +3

In non-relativistic physics, the concepts of geometry and topology are usually applied to characterize spatial structures or structures in momentum space. We introduce the concept…

Ultrafast TACOS -- Terahertz-Assisted Chiro-Optical Spectroscopy

Justas Terentjevas, Patricia Vindel-Zandbergen, Laura Rego +4

We bring together the advantages of terahertz (THz) and optical spectroscopies to introduce TACOS (Terahertz-Assisted Chiro-Optical Spectroscopy), a novel approach for ultrafast an…

All-optical coherent control of chiral electronic transitions for highly enantioselective photochemistry

Andrés Ordóñez, Patricia Vindel-Zandbergen, David Ayuso

Enantioselective photochemistry provides access to unique molecular structures and functions, with deep implications for fundamental science and industrial applications. Current me…
