We demonstrate that superchiral near fields, fields that are essentially more twisted than circularly polarized light, exist above conventional silicon photonic crystal waveguides. We envision using these fields to accurately sense chiral molecules.@en
Highly accurate sensing of chiral molecules is crucial in drug development as one mirror image of a chiral molecule (enantiomer) can be toxic while the other is healing.@en
