Planar chiral building blocks based on 4,7,12,15-tetrasubstituted [2.2]paracyclophanes were obtained via a synthetic route involving an optical resolution step. Planar chiral enantiomers, comprising two fluorophores that were stacked to form a V-shaped higher-ordered structure, were synthesized from these building blocks. The V-shaped molecules emitted intense circularly polarized luminescence (CPL). Their chiroptical properties were compared with those of X-shaped molecules bearing the same two fluorophores stacked together. The CPL sign of the X-shaped molecule was opposite to that of the V-shaped molecule, which is supported by the theoretical results, indicating that the CPL sign can be controlled by the orientation of the stacked fluorophores.

Circular differential scattering (CDS) spectroscopy has been developed as a powerful method for the characterization of the optical activity of individual plasmonic nanostructures and their complexes with chiral molecules. However, standard measurement setups often result in artifacts that have long raised concerns on the interpretation of spectral data. In fact, the detection limit of CDS setups is constrained by the high level of artifacts, to ±10%.

We have found that surface superstructures made of "monolayer alloys" of Tl and Pb on Si(111), having giant Rashba effect, produce nonreciprocal spin-polarized photocurrent via circular photogalvanic effect (CPGE) by obliquely shining circularly polarized near-infrared (IR) light. CPGE is here caused by the injection of in-plane spin into spin-split surface-state bands, which is observed only on Tl-Pb alloy layers but not on single-element Tl nor Pb layers. In the Tl-Pb monolayer alloys, despite their monatomic thickness, the magnitude of CPGE is comparable to or even larger than the cases of many other spin-split thin-film materials.

Chiral metal organic cage compounds with excellent circularly polarized luminescent performance have broad application prospects in many fields. Herein, two lanthanide complexes with luminescent properties in the form of racemic hexagonal octahedral cages were synthesized using a tri (β-diketone) ligand. Eu6(C21H6F15O6)8(H2O)6 exhibited red light emission with high quantum yields of 61%.

Herein, we report the influence of solvent on the self-assembly of a dinuclear helicate, (NMe)[Eu(LR)]. A multiple species mixture with the chemical composition of [Eu(LR)] present in CHCN can be transformed into a helicate upon increasing the content of CHCl, accompanied by a significant enhancement in circularly polarized luminescence activity.

Chirality, a basic property of symmetry breaking, is crucial for fields such as biology and physics. Recent advances in the study of chiral systems have stimulated interest in the discovery of symmetry-breaking states that enable exotic phenomena such as spontaneous gyrotropic order and superconductivity. Here we examine the interaction between light chirality and electron spins in indium selenide and study the effect of magnetic field on emerging tunnelling photocurrents at the Van Hove singularity.
