Technology term
Circularly Polarized Luminescence (CPL)
Light emission in which the electric field rotates preferentially clockwise or counterclockwise as the light travels. Because the direction and strength of the signal can depend on molecular chirality, CPL measurements can help characterize handed chemical and biological structures.
