Self-assembled plasmonic structures combine the specificity and tunability of chemical synthesis with collective plasmonic properties. Here we systematically explore the effects of symmetry breaking on the chiroptical response of an assembly of plasmonic nanoparticles using simulation. The design is based on a tetrahedral nanoparticle frame with two different types of nanoparticles, where chirality is induced by targeted stimuli that change the distance along one edge of the assembly. We show that the intensity, spectral position, and handedness of the CD response are tunable with small structural changes, making it usable as a nanoscale plasmonic ruler. We then build upon this initial design to show that the symmetry breaking principle may also be used to design a chiral pyramid using a mixture of different nanoparticle materials, which affords tunability over a broad spectral range, and retrieves nanoscale conformational changes over a range of length scales.
