Abstract
Chirality is fundamentally related to a magnetoelectric response. But the magnetoelectric response is characterized by the violation of both spatial and temporal symmetry. It is claimed that time-even pseudoscalar optical chirality gives enantioselective fields. Are only time-even pseudoscalars required to describe local properties of chiral light-matter interactions? We argue that near fields with both spatial and temporal symmetry breaking, called magnetoelectric near fields, are true enantioselective fields for describing local properties of chiral light-matter interactions.
