The circular dichroism of bilipeptides from Spirulina geitleri phycocyanin is strongly solvent and pH dependent. Maximum optical activity has been observed in aqueous solutions containing urea (8 ᴍ). In aqueous buffer, a sign reversal occurred upon the change from neutral to acidic pH; in methanolic solutions shows the optical activity a strong pH dependence both with respect to sign and magnitude. These findings have been rationalized by the presence of chrom ophorepeptide interactions, which are minimized in the presence of urea. M olecular orbital calculations indicate that the observed sign reversal is not necessarily due to a reversal of the chirality of the entire chromophore, but may also result from more localized conform ational changes

Chiral plasmonic nanostructures exhibit strong rotatory optical activity and are expected to enrich the field of metaoptical materials. Potential applications of chiroplasmonic nanostructures include circular polarizers, optical polarization detectors, asymmetric catalysts, and sensors. However, chiral plasmonic materials require subwavelength structural control and involve laborious chemical or lithographic procedures for their manufacturing. Moreover, strong rotatory activity of subwavelength structures whose chirality was imparted by microfabrication, has been obtained for the red and infrared parts of the spectrum but faces new challenges for the blue and violet spectral ranges even with plasmonic materials with plasmonic bands in the 200–400 nm window. In this study, we address this problem by preparing chiral subwavelength nanostructures by glancing angle sputtering of metallic silver on ZnO nanopillar arrays. Silver deposition in two different planes is a convenient method for preparation of silver chiroplasmonic nanocaps (Ag CPNCs) with controlled asymmetry. Circular dichroism spectroscopy was used to examine the circular extinction for the left-handed nanocaps (L-CPNCs) with understanding that not only circular dichroism but also many other optical effects contribute to the amplitude of these bands. The pillared silver films exhibit circular extinction in the violet area of the electromagnetic spectrum. Partial oxidation of Ag to AgxO causes the absorption and corresponding circular extinction band obtained using a conventional CD spectrometer at 400–525 nm to increase and shift. This optical material may be used to detect oxygen and extends the spectrum of application of chiroplasmonic materials to gas sensing.
