Abstract
The realization of enhanced circular dichroism using chiral nanostructures is crucial for the development of functional nanophotonic devices. This study proposes to construct chiral structures by adjusting the relative orientation between two vertically shifted rectangular nanodisk arrays. In comparison to localized plasmon modes, the twisted array allows selective excitation of hybridized surface lattice resonances by left- or right-handed circularly polarized incidence, and the strong interactions among individual nanoparticles result in enhanced circular dichroism. The calculation results demonstrate a significant differential transmittance of up to 0.61, which is more than one order of magnitude stronger than that of localized modes. Moreover, the chiral responses can be effectively controlled by manipulating geometry parameters such as inter-layer separation, twisted angle, and lattice spacing, as these factors govern the coupling efficiency with the external field and the radiative damping of the hybridized modes. The proposed twisted array structure offers a versatile platform for manipulating chiral light fields.
