Abstract: Chiral atomically thin CdTe nanostructures with thicknesses of 2 and 3 monolayers coated with enantiomerically pure N-acetyl-L-cysteine ligand were prepared by ligand exchange. Circular dichroism spectra demonstrate the Cotton effect for heavy-hole and light-hole excitons.

Keywords: 2D semiconductors, chirality, cadmium chalcogenides, CdTe nanoplatelets, circular dichroism, excitons, ligand exchange, colloidal synthesis.
