Giant Circular Dichroism in Individual Carbon Nanotubes Induced by Extrinsic Chirality
Circular dichroism is widely used for characterizing organic and biological materials, but measurements at a single-molecule level are challenging because differences in absorption for opposite helicities are small. Here, we show that extrinsic chirality can induce giant circular dichroism in indivi...
