Preparation and characterization of novel chiral metasurfaces and their interaction with active materials by Wang, Zeng

“…Nowadays, CPL has been widely used in chemical and biological industries, however its generation still relies on the conversion from linear polarized light, which not only requires expensive waveplate setup, but also bring in energy lose during the process. Therefore, the hybrid system demonstrated in this thesis for directly CPL emission is very significant for providing a feasible way to address these problems and shed light for the future studies.…”
