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 ...

A way to electrically modify the chirality of organic–inorganic hybrid materials, in which chiral molecules adsorb onto inorganic surfaces, has been demonstrated by researchers at Science Tokyo. By ...

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 ...
