Chiral light-emitting nanostructures and large-area fabrication

This talk will discuss three routes to realizing nanoscale chiral structures. The first part will discuss controlling circularly polarized photoluminescence from patterned light emitters near plasmonic nanostructures, and how the spatial position of the pattern affects polarization state and photoluminescence intensity. The second part will discuss large-area, scalable, additive patterning techniques for metamaterials that are roll-to-roll compatible. The third will discuss plasmonic structures formed from block copolymer templates, and processing routes that lead to tunable circular dichroism.
