A way to electrically modify the chirality of organic–inorganic hybrid materials, in which chiral molecules adsorb onto ...

New research describes how the modulation of the geometry of a helical reactor at a macroscopic level enables controlling the sign of chirality of a process at a nanometric scale, an unprecedented ...

Chirality is a fundamental property of asymmetry in nature, where an object or molecule cannot be superimposed onto its mirror image. In the context of nanotechnology, chirality refers to the ...

The thumb and first two fingers on Tsvelik's hands show the relative orientations of three nearby electrons whose magnetic moments point at right angles to one another--like the x, y, z axes on a 3-D ...

The role of electrons and their negative charge in electric current is well established. Electrons also exhibit other intrinsic properties that are associated, for example, with considerable potential ...

What sets CNTs apart is the concept of chirality. The production of CNTs can follow either a chirality-controlled or a non-chirality-controlled process, such as armchair, zigzag, or chiral. For ...

The recognition of chirality in bioactive molecules is as old as modern organic chemistry itself. Pioneering work by Jean-Baptiste Biot, Louis Pasteur, Emil Fischer, and J. vant Hoff established ...

Researchers demonstrate reversible electrical control of chirality in hybrid materials, imposing chirality on molybdenum disulfide to enable tunable states for spintronics and chiral iontronics.
