A new method of distinguishing chiral molecules could eventually detect distortions inside quantum and soft materials, find ...

In nature, there exist structures that are mirror images of each other but cannot be perfectly superimposed. These are known ...

Researchers verified the chiral-induced spin selectivity effect, i.e., the influence of chiral molecules on spin, using spintronic analytical techniques. Researchers at Mainz University verified the ...

In a study titled "Near-complete chiral selection in rotational quantum states" published in Nature Communications, the Controlled Molecules Group from the Molecular Physics Department of the Fritz ...

Metal cluster molecules are discrete compounds containing multiple metal atoms held together by metal–metal and metal–ligand ...

The idea that you can take two different radicals and get them to react with one another without losing stereochemistry, ...

Chiral molecules, which have a helical structure, are known to interact with magnets in a phenomenon known as chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS). For instance, when a chiral molecule is ...

A new platform for engineering chiral electron pathways offers potential fresh insights into a quantum phenomenon discovered by chemists—and exemplifies how the second quantum revolution is fostering ...

(Nanowerk News) The role of electrons and their negative charge in electric current is well established. Electrons also exhibit other intrinsic properties that are associated, for example, with ...
