Metasurfaces comprising 3D chiral structures have shown great potential in chiroptical applications such as chiral
optical components and sensing. So far, the main challenges lie in the nanofabrication and the limited operational
bandwidth. Here, we present an effective nanofabrication method to create a 3D chiral metasurface with far- and nearfield
broadband chiroptical properties. A focused ion beam is used to cut and stretch nanowires into 3D Archimedean
spirals from stacked films. The spiral exhibits far- and near-field broadband chiroptical responses from 2 to 8 μm. With
circularly polarized light (CPL), the spiral shows superior far-field transmission dissymmetry and handedness-dependent
near-field localization. The reported method and chiral metasurface may find applications in broadband chiral optics and
chiral sensing.
