(left/right-handed) molecules are crucial to biochemistry. Light can distinguish between them but interacts too weakly, and boosting with is not easy because it destroys chirality of EM fields. Typical solution is to design with highly chiral field that makes molecules absorb circularly polarised light differently. Here we find a much stronger effect where the molecules make nanostructures absorb light differently!

Well, I can't decide on the best stories of 2022, but I can point to the result that I most wish I had thought of doing, but somebody else got to it first. It's this one, published back in March:
rdcu.be/c2w3X
This describes terahertz measurements on polycrystalline samples of various different amino acids. The data indicate the presence of terahertz in some cases. Very difficult experiments, but very impressive results!

Birthday 🎂 boy was also the first to observe and then separate crystallized of a compound (sodium tartrate) - with a tweezer!

Our paper on the *anomalous* circularly polarised (CP) electroluminescence of polymer films is out now in @NaturePhotonics. This paper was led by my former PhD student Li Wan, together with @Binghai11 for the theory. A short 🧵 nature.com/articles/s41566-022

We had some super cool demonstrations of optical rotation (the rotation of the plane of polarisation of linearly polarised light as it passes through a molecule). Here’s light twisting through sucrose and fructose! 🌀🌈 I’ll paste the tweet to avoid overloading ’s servers twitter.com/jesswade/status/15
