title: Synthesis of chiral metal oxide complexes with tunable electron transition-based optical activity.
abstract: Chiral metal oxide complexes with tunable optical response to circularly polarised light over the full range of the UV-Vis absorption band were synthesised. This optical activity was attributed to electronic transitions from the ground state to the excited state or from the valence band to the conduction band under an asymmetric electric field.
