Abstract
The chiral feature of an optical field can be evaluated by the parameter of g-factor enhancement, which is helpful to enhance chiroptic signals from a chiral dipole. In this work, the superchiral spot has been theoretically proposed in metal-insulator-metal waveguides. The g-factor enhancement of the superchiral spot can be enhanced by 67-fold more than that of circularly polarized light, and the spot is confined in the deep wavelength scale along each spatial dimension. Moreover, the position of the superchiral spot can be tuned by manipulating the incident field. The tunable superchiral spot may find applications in chiral imaging and sensing.
期刊介绍：
Chinese Optics Letters (COL) is an international journal aimed at the rapid dissemination of latest, important discoveries and inventions in all branches of optical science and technology. It is considered to be one of the most important journals in optics in China. It is collected by The Optical Society (OSA) Publishing Digital Library and also indexed by Science Citation Index (SCI), Engineering Index (EI), etc.
COL is distinguished by its short review period (~30 days) and publication period (~100 days).
With its debut in January 2003, COL is published monthly by Chinese Laser Press, and distributed by OSA outside of Chinese Mainland.
