Standing at the intersection between mathematics and the tiler's trade is the so-called einstein problem. Despite its name, ...

It's important to note that researchers are likely at least 10 to 30 years away from creating mirror bacteria. On the ...

For Wan, now at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York, the work was an introduction to an odd quirk of animal biology: cell chirality, a little-understood phenomenon that a handful 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 ...

A strange molecular pattern, first mistaken for an error, led researchers to an unexpected discovery: molecules forming ...

Chirality is a fundamental property of matter that determines many biological, chemical and physical phenomena. Chiral solids, for example, offer exciting opportunities for catalysis, sensing and ...

Chirality refers to objects that cannot be superimposed to their mirror images through any combination of rotations or translations, much like the distinct left and right hands of a human.

Previous studies by the Robinson Group demonstrated that when these nanoclusters were processed into thin films, they exhibited circular dichroism, a key characteristic of chirality. Circular ...

Upon illumination with circularly polarized light, it was observed that the intensity of light scattered at the second harmonic (2f) depended on the chirality of the helices. Chiroptical Harmony’s ...
