The chirality lies in the geometry Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image of nickel-based artificial chiral magnets ...

Sometimes the difference between life-saving drug and deadly side effect is chirality. L-DOPA is the best drug we have for Parkinson’s disease. If you take L-DOPA and reflect it in a mirror, you get a ...

In this episode of Tiny Show and Tell Us, we cover why your body feels so ‘off’ at high altitudes and how we’ve evolved not to detect low oxygen levels but high amounts of carbon dioxide. Then we ...

In the past several decades, significant progress has been made in controlling molecular chirality, as evidenced by the several Nobel Prizes in chemistry awarded in this area, particularly for ...

In our high school chemistry classes we all learn about chirality, the property of organic molecules in which two chemically identical molecules can have different structures that are mirror images of ...

Physicists in China have uncovered new evidence that chiral phonons and magnons can interact strongly inside magnetic ...

Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have created a chip-scale device that can dynamically control the "handedness" of light as it passes ...
