We present a novel configuration for high-sensitivity and rapid measurement of broadband CD and ORD spectra spanning the visible and near-infrared. The setup utilizes a linearly polarized light that creates an orthogonally polarized weak chiral free-induction-decay field, along with a phase-locked achiral transmitted signal which serves as the local oscillator for heterodyne amplification. By scanning the delay between the two fields with a birefringent common-path interferometer and recording their interferogram with a balanced detector, broadband CD and ORD spectra are retrieved simultaneously with a Fourier transform. Using an incoherent thermal light source, we achieve state-of-the-art sensitivity for CD and ORD across a broad wavelength range with a measurement time of just a few seconds. The setup allows high-sensitivity measurement of glucose concentration and real-time monitoring of fast asymmetric chemical reactions. The setup can further be extended for broadband transient optical activity measurements.
