The strong chiroptical effect is highly desirable and has a wide range of applications in biosensing, chiral catalysis, polarization tuning, and chiral photo detection. In this work, we find a simple method to enhance the reflection circular dichroism (CDR) by placing the planar anisotropic chiral metamaterials (i.e., Z-shaped PACMs) on the interface of two media (i.e., Z-PCMI) with a large refractive index difference. The maximum reflection CDR from the complex system can reach about 0.840 when the refractive index is set as ntop = 4.0 and nbottom = 1.49, which is approximately three times larger than that of placing the Z-shaped PACMs directly on the substrate (i.e., Z-PCMS). While the minimum reflection CDR is 0.157 when the refractive index is set as nbottom = 1.49. So we can get a large available range of reflection CDR from –0.840 to –0.157. Meanwhile, the transmission CDT remains unchanged with the refractive index ntop increment. Our in-depth research indicates that the large reflection CDR is derived from the difference of non-conversion components of the planar anisotropic chiral metamaterials’ reflection matrices. In short, we provide a simple and practical method to enhance the chiroptical effect by changing the refractive index difference between two media without having to design a complex chiral structure.
