Chiral tree for the timeline of key milestones in optical sorting and detection

Caption

A timeline illustrating the major milestones in optical chirality research, tracing the evolution of optical sorting and detection technologies from early studies of natural chiral particles to recent advances in metasurfaces, bound states in the continuum (BICs), toroidal resonances, and artificial intelligence–assisted optical analysis.
