| contents | We propose a bilayer all-dielectric PhC for controlling Janus bound states in the continuum (BIC) and optical chirality through symmetry-selective perturbations. Starting from a symmetry-protected $Γ$-point BIC, we use interlayer displacement as one geometric control knob to generate different topological charges in the upward radiation and downward radiation channels. A subsequent diagonal in-plane displacement reconstructs the polarization topology around the BIC and generates a Janus-chiral BIC with strong handedness selectivity. In contrast, other in-plane perturbations generate chiral quasi-BICs with finite radiative coupling, for which the circular dichroism (CD) and resonance wavelength can be continuously tuned. We further show that material conductivity provides an additional dissipative degree of freedom for actively modulating the chiral response, with a switchable CD exceeding 0.89. Near-field optical-chirality distributions and multipole decompositions reveal that the chiral response originates from a symmetry-induced imbalance of local optical handedness and a spin-selective magnetic-dipole resonance. These results reveal the topological relationship between Janus radiation, polarization singularities and intrinsic chirality, thus paving a scalable route toward reconfigurable high-$Q$ chiral photonics. |
