摘要

Abstract

Chirality

defined by Lord Kelvin

refers to the geometric symmetry property of an object that cannot be superposed onto its mirror image using rotations and translations. The material’s chirality can be probed with light as the optical activity: optical rotary dispersion (ORD) and circular dichroism (CD). It is still challenging to yield extremely sensitive ORD and CD for very weak chirality and measure both simultaneously. Cavity ringdown polarimetry has been reported to improve ORD detection sensitivity with the absence of equally important CD signature

at the price of high cavity finesse near 400

frequency-locking sophistication

and large magnetic field. Here

we report a unique recipe to demonstrate the simultaneous measurement of ORD and the CD by separately observing the chiral eigenmode spectra fro

m a bowtie optical cavity with a finesse about 30

without resorting to frequency locking or magnetic field. We obtain a sensitivity of ~2.7 × 10

for CD

and a spectral resolution of 0.04 pm within a millisecond-scale measurement. We present a cost-effective yet ultrasensitive account for chiral chromatography

the conformational dynamics and chiroptical analysis of biological samples which particu-larly exhibit weak and narrow spectral signals.
