A new technique involving terahertz light has enabled the creation of chiral states in non-chiral materials, offering ...

Chirality refers to objects that cannot be superimposed onto their mirror images through any combination of rotations or ...

Same with alpha helices, the building blocks of proteins. Chirality, or handedness, is everywhere in biology, but the reasons can be a mystery. Greg Huber, a biophysicist and researcher at the ...

The creation of chiral materials from semiconductors at Cornell opens new avenues for optical sensors and displays, enhancing ...

RIT chemical engineering researcher contributes to new technique to manipulate light to improve applications for sensors, ...

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 ...

Thus, the biological implications of chirality demand that we improve our ability to access chiral small molecules as pure entities. Though the field of asymmetric synthesis has its roots in ...

Both results make use of chirality — a structural design that does not show mirror symmetry. Some naturally occurring materials, such as milk or sugar solutions, have extremely weak chirality.

Left and right circularly polarized light, where the electromagnetic waves spiral in a clockwise and counterclockwise manner ...

Researchers have discovered an innovative way to manipulate electronic properties in a magnetic Weyl semimetal using hydrogen ...

Chirality refers to objects that cannot be superimposed to their mirror images through any combination of rotations or translations, much like the distinct left and right hands of a human.
