A Reflection spectra of R811/SLC1717 at different weight ratios from 20 wt% to 32 wt%. Inset: Corresponding images under NL. B CD spectra of S811/SLC1717 and R811/SLC1717 at different weight ratios from 20 wt% to 32 wt%. C Schematic illustration of the formation of the ternary G-CLCs. D CD spectra of the ternary-component G-CLCs. E Change in the CD intensity from S811/SLC1717 to the ternary-component CLC assemblies. F Schematic illustration of the deformation of the helical arrangement after the introduction of (S/R)-Ag6. G Overlap of the reflection spectra and PL spectra of R-Ag6. H CPL spectra of the ternary G-CLCs (R-Ag6/R811/SLC1717 and R-Ag6/S811/SLC1717); the excitation wavelength is 370 nm. I CPL spectra of the ternary G-CLCs (S-Ag6/R811/SLC1717 and S-Ag6/S811/SLC1717); the excitation wavelength is 370 nm. J Schematic illustration of the chiral amplification principle in the systems, i.e., the sergeants-and-soldiers rule. Sergeant 1, (S/R)-Ag6; sergeant 2, R811/S811; solider, nematic LC. K Illustration of an enantioselective effect in the ternary assemblies (both sergeants 1 and 2).
