The phenomenon where electron spins align in a specific direction after passing through chiral materials is a cornerstone for ...

Chiral metasurfaces can strongly twist the polarization of light, but how this process unfolds in space and time has been unclear. Scientists in China have now used ultrafast electron microscopy and ...

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created a new superconductor with a chiral crystalline structure by mixing two materials, one with superconductivity but no chirality ...

In trying to produce artificial chirality in the lab, chemists have found that the distribution of a magnetic field is itself chiral. Some molecules exist in two forms such that their structures and ...

A study finds chiral structures, with mirror-image configurations, can emerge from nonchiral systems, suggesting new ways to engineer these materials. Hold your hands out in front of you, and no ...

The field of nanomaterials is witnessing a transformative shift at the intersection of organic chemistry and molecular ...

This review examines the role of twisted light in chiral systems, highlighting its applications in spectroscopy and materials ...

Chiral gold nanostars show how molecular asymmetry transfers to high-symmetry nanoparticles, producing structures with distinctive optical behavior and enhanced molecular detection. (Nanowerk ...

Researchers from the Institute for Molecular Science and Seoul National University have found that the visible luminescence from chiral gold nanoparticles, when exposed to near-infrared femtosecond ...
