Synthesis and optimization of chiral polymerized liquid crystal nanoparticles

We will describe the mechanisms to synthesize and optimize chiral polymerized liquid crystal nanoparticles that will be used in experiments in WP1 and later in WP3 (for separation purposes)

Data management plan 2

Definition of the revised Data Management Plan

Report on optical force and enantiomer resolving power predictions for the integrated waveguide designs to guide the demonstrator

In WP2 we will perform calculations on optical force and enantiomer resolving power in chiral integrated waveguides. Such calculations, which will be reported in this deliverable, will lead to designs to guide the final demonstrator.

Optimized building blocks: waveguides, interfaces, compensators

Key building blocks of C-PICs (waveguides, interfaces, compensators) will be designed and optimized using numerical simulations. Here we will report on such designs to be later fabricated to form c-PICs.

Report on preliminary results and algorithm of numerical DFT method to determine chirality spectra of molecules, and its link with optical force calculations

Here we will describe the first results as well as the numerical DFT method employed to determine the chirality spectra of molecules. We will also establish a link so that such molecules can be used in the optical force calculations to be performed in WP2.

Definition of the Dissemination and Exploitation Plan

Risks, bottlenecks and opportunities of enantioselective optical forces

First simulation results on optical forces exerted by chiral modes in integrated waveguides will allow us to establish the risks, bottlenecks, and opportunities of enantioselective optical forces. These results will set the limits of the application of the CHIRALFORCE technology.

Creation of online open database of chiral polarizability of molecules/particles populated with our broadband calculations on various molecules and particles

From all the simulation and modeling results performed within WP1 to get the chiral response of molecules and nanoparticles, we will create an online open database of chiral polarizability of molecules/particles. This database will be useful in CHIRALFORCE as well as for any researcher interested in chiral matter and chiroptical interaction.
