Detection methods and photochemical reactions are available that utilize the difference in optical absorption for left and right circularly polarized light (circular dichroism) in chiral molecules. However, analysis using these methods requires high sample concentrations and significant measurement times due to the minuscule difference in absorption. Methods to enhance absorption with nano-antennas that boost electromagnetic fields have garnered attention, but conventional nano-antennas have struggled to maintain circular polarization of incident light. In this study, the Kobe University research group proposed and tested a new nano-antenna that boosts electromagnetic fields and maintains circular polarization. It achieved optical resonance that maintains the circular polarization of incoming light in a wide visible spectrum range using its independently developed silicon nanoparticle colloids.The new nano-antennas offer promising applications in highly sensitive sensing of molecular chirality and asymmetric photochemical reactions. The study was published in the international journal Nano Letters at 10:00 a.m. (EST) on May 29.Main PointsThe research group proposed and tested a nano-antenna that uses the specific optical resonance of dielectric nanoparticles to form a near field of circularly polarized light.This technique bolsters the circularly polarized light-selective response of chiral molecules.The results of this study should provide applications in chirality analysis and asymmetric photochemical reactions for biomolecules, chemical substances, and pharmaceuticals.Research Background“Chirality” refers to the property of a substance that cannot be superimposed on its mirror image. Since the mirror image isomers of chiral molecules have significantly different physiological effects, there is great demand in the life science and pharmacology fields for new technologies to identify and sort mirror isomers efficiently. Detection methods and photochemical reactions are available that utilize the difference in optical absorption for left and right circularly polarized light (circular dichroism) in chiral molecules, but analysis using these existing techniques requires high sample concentrations and significant measurement times. These requirements stem from the minuscule absorption difference between left and right circularly polarized light due to the small size of chiral molecules relative to the helical pitch of such light. Increasing circular dichroism requires a technology that creates enhanced fields with circular polarization in nanoscale regions smaller than optical wavelengths. Optical chirality, a measure of the enhanced field of circular polarization, is maximized when both the electric and magnetic fields are enhanced, and the direction of handedness of the incident circular polarization (helicity) is preserved. However, conventional nano-antennas (e.g., metal nano-antennas with localized surface plasmon resonance1) resonate with the incident electric field, but their response to the incident magnetic field is minimal, blocking helicity preservation. Therefore, developing a new type of nano-antenna that resonates in both electric and magnetic fields is necessary.Study SummaryThis study focused on the Mie resonance2 of dielectric nanoparticles with a high refractive index. Mie resonances include electric and magnetic dipole resonances (Figure 1, left), and dielectric nanoparticles with low-order Mie resonances in light frequency ranges can enhance both incident electric and magnetic fields. Such nanoparticles are electromagnetically symmetric and termed “dual” nano-antennas (Figure 1, right). Dual nano-antennas enhance optical chirality with their two resonances, even though these nano-antennas have an achiral3 structure. In this case, the scattered light from the resonance preserves the incident light’s helicity (handedness of circular polarization). In this study, the research group developed a new type of nano-antenna that can both boost electromagnetic fields and maintain circular polarization using Mie resonances in the visual and near-infrared spectrums."Dual" nanoantennaSchematic of electric dipole, magnetic dipole and "dual" nanoantenna, Credit: SUGIMITO Hiroshi, Usage Restrictions: NoneFirst, the researchers calculated the helicity density of optical resonance in silicon nanoparticles based on the Mie theory. They demonstrated that these particles preserve the helicity of incident circularly polarized light under Kerker conditions4—equal intensity and phase in the electric and magnetic dipole resonances—forming a near field of circularly polarized light. To demonstrate this property, the research group used a colloidal solution of crystalline silicon nanoparticles that they developed independently. Figure 2(a) shows a photograph of colloidal solutions of differently sized silicon nanoparticles. Suppressing the size distribution to less than 5% results in vivid scattering coloration. The team constructed a setup to accurately measure the right- and left-handed circularly polarized components of the scattered light when the nanoparticles are irradiated with clockwise circularly polarized light, obtaining the helicity density spectrum. Particles without this “dual” resonance (e.g., gold nanoparticles) exhibit changes in the scattered light polarization, as shown in Figure 2(b), and do not preserve the incident light helicity. The helicity density is nearly zero in both experiments and calculations, as shown in Figure 2(c). Meanwhile, “dual” nanoparticles satisfying the Kerker conditions preserve the scattered light helicity of the incident circularly polarized light (Figure 2(d)). The colloidal solution of silicon nanoparticles shown in Figure 2(e) allows the helicity density to reach a theoretical value of 0.96 and an experimental value of 0.7 at a wavelength of around 680 nm. This result indicates the formation of a circularly polarized near field on the nanoparticle surface. The research group has performed similar measurements on silicon nanoparticles with average diameters ranging from 114 to 179 nm and demonstrated that helicity conservation of incident circularly polarized light is possible in wavelengths of 550 to 750 nm.Materials and Results(a) Photographs of colloidal Si nanoparticles in water with different diameters.

This effect improves the circular dichroism of chiral molecules, enabling highly sensitive detection and analysis and increasing the efficiency of asymmetric photochemical reactions, with potential applications in the pharmaceutical field. Moreover, the developed nanoparticle solution has potential as a new liquid for controlling light polarization.Glossary1 Mie resonanceThe phenomenon of resonant scattering found in dielectrics with a high refractive index seen in light wavelength-sized spherical particles, whose exact solution was derived by Gustav Mie in 1908. Mie resonance combines electrical and magnetic resonances in response to incident electric and magnetic fields. The particle size can control the resonance wavelength.2 Localized surface plasmon resonanceAn optical resonance phenomenon caused by metallic nanostructures, originating from the collective oscillation of free electrons in the metal. Electrical resonance occurs primarily in response to the incident electric field.3 AchiralHaving the property of being able to superimpose a substance on its mirror image, as opposed to the property of chirality in which a substance cannot be superimposed on its mirror image.4 Kerker conditionsThe wavelength conditions in which the magnitude and phase of the dipole moment of electric and magnetic dipole resonances coincide.AcknowledgementsThis research was supported by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) through its Fusion Oriented Research for Disruptive Science and Technology (FOREST) Program (JPMJFR213L) (principal investigator: SUGIMOTO Hiroshi) and by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) Grant-in-Aid for Challenging Exploratory Research (22K18949) (principal investigator: FUJII Minoru).Publication DataTitle“Helicity-Preserving Optical Metafluids”DOI10.1021/acs.nanolett.3c01026AuthorsNEGORO Hidemasa, SUGIMOTO Hiroshi, FUJII MinoruPublicationNano LettersRelated linkAssociate Professor SUGIMITO HiroshiResearchersSugimoto HiroshiAssociate ProfessorGraduate School of EngineeringFujii MinoruProfessorGraduate School of EngineeringGraduate School of EngineeringSHAREMore from these researchersPress releases2024.01.31Engineering sciencesStructural color ink: Printable, non-iridescent and lightweightInterviews2023.05.11Engineering sciencesAn International Platform for unique silicon-based nanomaterial applicationsPress releases2022.06.27Engineering sciencesLong-lasting colors of the future?More about these topicsPress releases2020.11.13ChemistrySuccess in controlling the composition of perovskite ions paves the way for applying their flexibility to devicesページの先頭へ1-1, Rokkodai-cho, Nada-ku, Kobe, 657-8501, JAPANProspective studentsCurrent studentsAlumsCorporate and societyFaculty and staffContactAccessJobsOfficial social media accountsCampus calendarPrivacy policySite policySite map© Kobe University
