This article is the first in a two part article (the second part [1] will be published in an upcoming issue of IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine) that presents a bottom-up description of ...

We have studied the self-assembly process of a typical biocoordination polymer, Ag(I)/cysteine (Cys), with different chiralities of the amino acid. Self-assembly of Ag(I)/l-Cys leads to production of ...

Tragically, one of the mirror-image molecules caused birth defects in thousands of infants. And although methods to effectively detect and monitor chirality are vital, they are also technically ...

Self-organization of individual dendronized poly (phenylacetylene) (PPA) macromolecules on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) is revealed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The dendronized PPA ...

Chirality in molecules is common, and sometimes very important. “Many molecules come in two ‘flavors,’” Tempelaar said. “They have a ‘right-handed’ form and a ‘left-handed’ form.

Abstract Helical piles are steel elements consisting of one or more helices placed along a central shaft and installed in the ground through rotation. This study describes a field investigation of the ...
