These polymers can exhibit unique properties due to their helical shapes, which can influence their interactions and functionalities. Chiral polymerization, the process of creating polymers with a ...

This reaction is analogous to the enzymatic growth of amino acids with chiral structures in vivo, which leads to the synthesis of proteins with helical structures. As such, it holds promise as a ...

Scientists have developed a new class of chiral metal-organic frameworks (CMOFs) featuring exceptional stability, ultrahigh surface areas, and cost-effective synthesis. These materials show great ...

For example, in helical ferromagnets, skyrmions adopt a chiral spin structure with a swirling configuration. These structures are topologically protected, meaning their topological properties ...

Terahertz light has the ability to control solids at the atomic level, forming chiral structures of left- and right-handedness. Credit: Zhiyang Zeng (MPSD), edited A new technique involving terahertz ...

Chirality is common in molecules found in living organisms such as DNA and in inorganic systems, like snail shells. One way to produce a chiroptical response is to assemble small nano-sized units ...
