Synthesis and optimization of chiral nanoparticles

-

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.

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.
