Chirality plays a part in all fields of physics. In optics, it is known for its effect on the spin of photons: that is, its influence on left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light.

The role of chirality and particle shape in self-assembly As nanotechnology advances, it is becoming possible to design new and more complicated structures from a growing repertoire of building blocks ...

Research is directed toward understanding and using the properties of condensed phases, ranging from experiments on the fundamental physics of phase transitions and chirality in liquid crystals, to ...

Water splitting—breaking water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen—is a promising pathway to sustainable energy. However, this ...
