AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates Photoelectron Circular Dichroism (PECD) in chiral anionic systems using a theoretical model, particularly focusing on one-photon detachment.
- The results show a chiral asymmetry represented by a dichroic parameter β of around ±3%, aligning well with previous experimental results related to amino acid anions.
- The findings support the idea that the strength of PECD is influenced by the ability of the emitted photoelectron to exhibit chiral asymmetry due to the molecular potential's short-range interactions.
Article Abstract
Photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) in the one-photon detachment of a model chiral anionic system is studied theoretically by the single center method. The computed chiral asymmetry, characterized by the dichroic parameter β of up to about ±3%, is in good accord with the first experimental observations of the effect in photodetachment of amino acid anions [P. Krüger and K. M. Weitzel, Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 60, 17861 (2021)]. Our findings confirm a general assumption that the magnitude of PECD is governed by the ability of an outgoing photoelectron wave packet to accumulate characteristic chiral asymmetry from the short-range part of the molecular potential.

Chiral hybrid organic-inorganic metal halides (HOMHs) hold great promise in broad applications ranging from ferroelectrics, spintronics to nonlinear optics, owing to their broken inversion symmetry and tunable chiroptoelectronic properties. Typically, chiral HOMHs are constructed by chiral organic cations and metal anion polyhedra, with the latter regarded as optoelectronic active units. However, the primary design approaches are largely constrained to regulation of general components within structural formula.

Protein molecules interact with nanoparticles to form a protein layer on the surface called the protein corona. Corona formation can be affected by the temperature and shape of the nanoparticles thereby impacting the fate of the nanoparticles inside physiological systems. We have investigated the human serum albumin (HSA) corona formation and its interactions with gold nanospheres and nanorods at different temperatures (18-42 °C).

Chiral crystals are promising orbitronic materials because they have been predicted to host monopole-like orbital textures, where the orbital angular momentum aligns isotropically with the electron's crystal momentum. However, such monopoles have not yet been directly observed in chiral crystals.
