Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting chiral characteristic of an analyte, are provided. In some embodiments, the method disclosed herein (e.g. operated by a system) comprises receiving at least one spectral line of harmonic emission generated by an interaction between a laser field and the analyte; measuring a characteristic of an electric field of the at least one spectral line resulting from an electric dipole interaction between the laser field and the analyte; and determining the chiral characteristic of said analyte based on said measured characteristics of the at least one spectral line.

Abstract: A method comprising: receiving a plurality of signals representing spectral emissions resulting from an interaction between a laser field and a respective plurality of analytes, wherein at least some of the analytes comprise multi-center chiral molecules; at a training stage, training a machine learning model on a training set comprising: (i) the plurality of signals, and (ii) labels associated with a configuration of a chirality in each of the plurality of analytes; and at an inference stage, applying the machine learning model to a target signal representing spectral emission associated with a target analyte comprising a multi-center chiral molecule, to determine chiral characteristic of the target analyte.

Abstract: The present invention provides a photo-electrochemical (PEC) cell electrode having a surface portion and a bulk portion composed of the same material, wherein at least one of the bulk portion and the surface portion of the electrode is doped with at least one dopant, and wherein said doping is non-uniform along an axis perpendicular to the surface portion. The non-uniform doping can include different concentrations and/or types of the dopants in the bulk portion and in the surface portion of the electrode. There is further provided a PEC cell comprising said electrode and an electrolyte, wherein the surface portion of the electrode faces the electrolyte.
