Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of polarizers, in particular to a double-layer helical chiral asymmetric planar metamaterial circular dichroism device. Background technique [0002] Circular dichroism is a basic characteristic of chiral materials, which refers to the difference in response (such as absorption, reflection, and transmission) of chiral materials to different circularly polarized light. Most of the materials and biological tissues composed of molecules in nature have certain chirality, so circular dichroism spectroscopy 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, so they have attracted extensive ...
