A strong and dynamically controlled circular dichroism (CD) effect has aroused great attention due to its desirable applications in modern chemistry and life sciences. In this Letter, we propose a graphene-metal hybrid chiral metamaterial to generate mid-infrared CD with an intensity of more than 10%, which can be actively controlled over a wide wavelength range. In addition to the strong tunability, the CD signal intensity of our nanostructure is drastically larger than that of the purely graphene-based chiroptical nanostructures. Our design offers a new strategy for developing tunable chiral metadevices, which could be used in various applications, such as biochemical detection and information processing.
由于其在现代化学和生命科学中的应用前景,强而动态可控的圆二色性(CD)效应引起了极大的关注。在这封信件中,我们提出了一种石墨烯-金属杂化手性超材料,可产生强度超过 10%的中红外 CD,且其波长范围可实现主动控制。除了强可调性之外,我们的纳米结构的 CD 信号强度也明显大于纯基于石墨烯的手性光学纳米结构。我们的设计为开发可调谐手性元器件提供了一种新策略,可用于生化检测和信息处理等各种应用。
