Abstract Chiral active matter exhibits a variety of collective behaviors, including phase separation, which is governed by the rule of "like chiralities attract, while opposite chiralities repel". In this work, we investigate the chiral demixing strategy of double-chiral partial mixture with inter-chiral frustration. We find that the inter-chiral frustration can significantly enhance the chiral demixing of active particles with different chiralities, both during the transient and in the steady state, not only accelerating the progress, but also improving the degree of phase separation. This phenomenon is reminiscent of the phase separation of binary mixtures in condensed matter physics, where the inter-chiral frustration can play a crucial role in the formation of the phase-separated states. We construct the phase diagram of the system and discuss the critical frustration for the enhancement of chiral demixing. Our work presents the first systematic investigation of inter-chiral frustration in self-propelled chiral active matter, filling a critical gap in the field.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
