Chemists at UC Davis are using catalysts (shown in gray spheres) to make organic compounds (blue sticks) with a specific chirality, or “handedness.” Most biological molecules are chiral, including ...

A printable organic polymer that assembles into chiral structures when printed has enabled researchers to reliably measure the amount of charge produced in spin-to-charge conversion within a ...

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

A team of scientists has created a chiral assembly by blending inorganic polyoxometalates and organic cyclodextrin molecules. Polyoxometalates are a class of nanomaterials with many useful ...

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

(a) Schematics of nonreciprocal transports by fluctuating Cooper pairs. (b) Observed amplitude of nonreciprocity in the chiral organic superconductor in comparison with polar inorganic superconductors ...

Structural chirality refers to the geometric property of objects that are not superimposable on their mirror images, a concept that is central to organic chemistry. In contrast, topological chirality ...

A teacher from the popular ed-tech platform Physics Wallah has recently gone viral on social media for his incredibly unique approach to teaching the concept of chirality in chemistry. The online ...

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 nature, organic molecules are either left- or right-handed, but synthesizing molecules with a specific 'handedness' in a lab is hard to do. Make a drug or enzyme with the wrong 'handedness,' and it ...
