Abstract

We discovered that chiral nanoneedles fabricated by vortex laser ablation can be used to visualize the helicity of an optical vortex. The orbital angular momentum of light determines the chirality of the nanoneedles, since it is transferred from the optical vortex to the metal. Only the spin angular momentum of the optical vortex can reinforce the helical structure of the created chiral nanoneedles. We also found that optical vortices with the same total angular momentum (defined as the sum of the orbital and spin angular momenta) are degenerate, and they generate nanoneedles with the same chirality and spiral frequency.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
