Understanding how proteins interact with their own mirror images enabled a Kobe University research team to design a small ...

Abstract: This paper reports a reflective secondary grating metasurface in the visible spectrum for chiral sensing. Distinct from conventional chiral metasurfaces, the proposed design is geometrically ...

Schematic illustration of MEMS-integrated twisted bilayer photonic crystals illuminated by right-handed circularly polarized and left-handed circularly polarized beams. Harvard engineers have built a ...

// (c) The BioChemical Library (BCL) was originally developed by contributing members of the Meiler Lab @ Vanderbilt University. // (c) // (c) The BCL is now made available as an open-source software ...

Myosins are motor proteins that move along actin filaments and underpin various intracellular functions. Recently, some myosins have been found to drive actin filaments along chiral curved paths, but ...

The anomalous Hall effect displays non-monotonic temperature dependence and sign reversals, originating from the competition between short-range and long-range spin correlations and their ...

Chirality—often described as "handedness"—is a fundamental property of nature, underlying the behavior of molecules ranging from DNA to pharmaceuticals. While chemists have long known how to separate ...

RIKEN researchers have discovered how right-handed molecules in our cells can give rise to cells that are not symmetrical about their central axes. This discovery is a key step toward determining why ...

A voltage-driven method enables reversible, tunable chiral states in semiconductor materials. (Nanowerk News) A way to electrically modify the chirality of organic–inorganic hybrid materials, in which ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. This mini review investigates how chirality can be harnessed to ...
