Abstract

The invention discloses a double helix chiral asymmetric planar meta-material circular dichroic device comprising a substrate 1 and a cladding layer 2 and a circular dichroic acting layer 3 which arearranged on the upper part of the substrate 1. The circular dichroic acting layer 3 has an array structure. The array structure is composed of a plurality of upper-and-lower-layer Archimedes helix array elements with certain scaling coefficient. The upper and lower layers of Archimedes helixes are made of chiral meta-material, the lower layer of Archimedes helix is covered by the cladding layer 2and the thickness of the cladding layer 2 is the same as the thickness of the lower layer of Archimedes helix, and the upper layer of Archimedes helix is arranged on the upper part of the cladding layer 2. Compared with the existing three-layer asymmetric planar meta-material structure, the circular dichroic performance can be greatly enhanced by the double helix chiral asymmetric planar meta-material and the meta-material has a brand-new working mechanism. The device has wide application prospect in the biological and optoelectronic field of molecular structure detection, display, laser, imaging and the like.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of polarizers, in particular to a double-layer helix chiral asymmetric planar metamaterial circular dichroic device. Background technique [0002] Circular dichroism is the basic characteristic of chiral materials, which refers to the difference in response of chiral materials to different circularly polarized light (such as absorption, reflection, transmission). Most of the materials and biological tissues composed of molecules in nature have a certain degree of chirality. Therefore, circular dichroism spectroscopy technology can be developed to detect materials and analyze the structure of biomolecules. However, the chirality and circular dichroism of natural materials are weak, which limits their application in many fields. In contrast, artificial metamaterials have excellent structural adjustment flexibility, and can produce significant chirality and circular dichroism through reasonable design. Therefore, i...
