| Abstract | Non-technical Description The interaction of chiral materials and devices with circularly polarized light creates new opportunities for applications in sensing, imaging, computing, and quantum photonic technologies. However, current chiroptical platforms face challenges, including limited understanding and electrical control of key chiroptical responses, a narrow range of material choices, manufacturing processes that are challenging to scale, and the lack of fast, accurate simulation and design |
