Popis: |
We investigate the plasmonic nanohelix as an individual subwavelength element for locally probing light chirality. We show that an hybrid nanoantenna combining a carbon-gold core-shell helix and a plasmonic nanoaperture transmits circularly polarized light with the same handedness as the helix and blocks the other. Such an assymmetric response is spatially localized, spectrally broadband and background-free. Finally, we demonstrate the possibility to engineer an individual plasmonic helix at the apex of a sharp tip typically used in scanning near-field microscopies, thus opening the prospect of moveable local probes for high resolution sensing and mapping of light chirality and chiroptical forces |
