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

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

Reactions that produce only one of two mirror-image forms of a molecule are a hot topic in organic synthesis. A light-driven catalyst provides good results, and the technique could be generally ...

In physics and materials science, the term "spin chirality" refers to an asymmetry in the arrangement of spins (i.e., the ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

Microscopy image showing the concentric pattern of F-actin, which gives rise to the clockwise rotation of the nucleus ...
