Abstract

Plasmonic and dielectric nanoparticles provide a platform to realize efficient coupling of light and matter at nanoscale, capitalizing on interaction channels hardly accessible in free space. In this work we investigate parallel electric and magnetic interaction channels that may drive the same transition of chiral molecules, intensified with nanoparticles whose optical response is dominated by a magnetic resonance, enhancing the effect of circular dichroism.
