Tailoring Enhanced Optical Chirality: Design Principles for Chiral Plasmonic Nanostructures
Electromagnetic fields with strong optical chirality can be formed in the near field of chiral plasmonic nanostructures. We calculate and visualize the degree of chirality to identify regions with relatively high values. This analysis leads to design principles for a simple utilization of chiral fie...
