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…
