In chiral crystals, the spatial arrangement of atoms confers a specific "handedness," which—for example—influences their optical and electrical properties. A Hamburg-Oxford team has focused on ...

Chiral solids, for example, offer exciting opportunities for catalysis, sensing and optical devices by enabling unique interactions with chiral molecules and polarized light. These properties are ...

My research focuses on designing 3D chiral nanostructures by combining the electronic properties of metals with the chirality of amino acids. Imparting chirality to non-chiral materials like ...

Like our left and right hands, chiral objects exist in two distinct forms that are mirror images of each other. The key feature of chiral optical nanostructures, such as metasurfaces, is their ...

"In this work, we have shown that chiral topological textures can be stabilized by shaping nanostructures in an appropriate way," says Dubourdieu. The ability to create and electrically manipulate ...
