Asymmetric photoelectron transmission through chirally-sculpted, polycrystalline gold.
Strong circular dichroism is observed in core-level photoelectron transmission through a chirally-etched polycrystalline Au surface, consistent with a chiral dependence on the electron's orbital angular momentum.
