Circular light polarization chirality control using simplified geometric structures rather than synthesized complex chiral molecules

"electric field applied to confined achiral liquid crystal molecules causes self-assembly into microscale pinwheel-shaped chiral structures... permanently replicate onto polymer nanofibers (adding <1% chiral additive ensures uniform structural orientation over large area overcoming cancellation effects) which are then coated with luminescent materials causing left- or right-handed (dictated by underlying molecular architecture) light emission ... simplified optical manufacturing: displays, sensors, AR/VR"
