We report on the experimental demonstration of chirality-selective mechanical separation of randomly distributed assemblies of right-handed and left-handed chiral microparticles by optical means. Chiral-resolution experiments are made using two-dimensional emulsions of chiral-liquid-crystal droplets under the action of circularly polarized laser beams and do not require information on the initial location of the particles. Also, we numerically identify that the cooperative effects of hydrodynamic interactions mediated by the viscous fluid surrounding the particles can speed up the enantioseparation process.< Réduire
