Raman optical activity, long thought to require chiral molecules or magnetic order, has been demonstrated in an achiral, ...

In trying to produce artificial chirality in the lab, chemists have found that the distribution of a magnetic field is itself chiral. Some molecules exist in two forms such that their structures and ...

The study demonstrates that applying a gate voltage drives chiral cations from an ionic liquid to the surface of achiral MoS 2, creating a controllable chiral electronic state without permanently ...

Matter behaves differently at various scales. At the microscopic, the behavior of molecules and their atomic constituents can shift drastically simply because the scale is so small that any change is ...
