Light that twists as it travels and materials whose internal order is knotted like a pretzel are starting to collide in the ...

RIKEN researchers have discovered how right-handed molecules in our cells can give rise to cells that are not symmetrical ...

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 ...

RIKEN researchers have discovered how right-handed molecules in our cells can give rise to cells that are not symmetrical ...

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

A team of chemists has made significant strides in the field of mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs). Their work showcases the development of a compact catenane with tuneable mechanical chirality ...

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 ...

Chirality and natural products are two pivotal concepts within the domains of chemistry and biology. Chirality is a molecular property that renders it non-superimposable on its mirror image, while ...

In our high school chemistry classes we all learn about chirality, the property of organic molecules in which two chemically identical molecules can have different structures that are mirror images of ...
