The rapidly growing field of research on chiral phonons is giving researchers new insights into the fundamental behaviors and structures of materials. The chirality of phonons could pave the way for ...

Engineers created a MEMS-tunable twisted bilayer photonic crystal chip that dynamically adjusts twist angle and spacing to ...

Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have created a chip-scale device ...

New findings settle the dispute: phonons can be chiral. This fundamental concept, discovered using circular X-ray light, sees phonons twisting like a corkscrew through quartz. Findings published in ...

(a) Electric field of LCP and superchiral light. (b) (Left) Schematic illustrating the generation of superchiral fields by focusing twisted RP beams. (Right) Theoretical model used to calculate the ...

This module has been designed to introduce second-year organic chemistry students to the concepts of stereochemistry through the lens of the World Health Organization’s Model List of Essential ...

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 ...

C-H activation-based method should speed drug molecule design and diversification. Scripps Research chemists have accomplished a long elusive feat in synthetic chemistry: the invention of a broadly ...

RIKEN physicists have discovered for the first time why the magnitude of the electron flow depends on direction in a special kind of magnet. This finding could help to realize future low-energy ...
