Measuring chiral phonons
Rahul Rao, Hanyu Zhu, Nicholas Kotov +7
Chiral phonons are quantized vibrations where the atomic motion in a solid breaks improper rotation symmetries. In many cases, chiral phonons possess angular momenta and are theref…

Raman and Terahertz Spectroscopy of Low-Frequency Chiral Phonons in Amino Acids
Rahul Rao, Won Jin Choi, Joseph M. Slocik +6
Chiral phonons are mirror-symmetric vibrations that correspond to twisting and rotational motions of atoms. In chiral biomolecules, they correspond to low-energy terahertz (THz)-ra…
