The handedness of small organic molecules has fascinated many generations of scientists, particularly owing to the pioneering contributions of Louis Pasteur and Emil Fischer. Modern science has ...

Chiral small organic molecules have been found to be very beneficial for producing CPL. Chiral means that the molecule cannot be superimposed on its mirror image. Chirality is important for CPL ...

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 new study has uncovered a surprising role for calcium in shaping life’s earliest molecular structures, shedding light on ...

A new study led by researchers at the Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) at the Institute of Science, Tokyo, has uncovered a ...

Experiment is an important step towards isolating right- and lefthanded molecules from each other. (Nanowerk News) A team of DESY researchers, led by DESY lead scientist and University of Kiel ...

Deep within certain magnetic molecules, atoms arrange their spins in a spiral pattern, forming structures called chiral helimagnets. These helical spin patterns have intrigued researchers for ...
