Optical Regulation of Chiral-Induced Spin Selectivity
Abstract
We present a non-perturbative theory that describes how light regulates chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) from the perspective of strong light-matter interactions. The research results indicate that 1) light can have opposite effects on the CISS, 2) the difference in CISS is caused by the steady states of nuclei coupled to spin electrons and 3) this steady state differences are caused by the different light-induced Lorentz forces felt by spin-up and spin-down electrons. The fundamental reason for these results is the impact of light on spin-orbital coupling (SOC), which is a complex process. This theoretical framework is verified by the calculations of Floquet SOC non-adiabatic nuclear dynamics.
