Artificially engineered chiral materials with exceptional light-manipulating capabilities show significantly enhanced chiroptical response and capability of light manipulation, which have emerged as a promising chiral platform for applications in biosensing, catalysis, and photonics. Scientists now report a novel class of chiral materials called bichiral nanoparticles that can easily tune the sign of circular dichroism through the hybridization of bichiral centers without inverting the ...
Scientists say their new research advances the potential of nanomedicine to cure conditions that are currently incurable, such as dementia and motor neurone disease.
Hydrogen's ability to power a sustainable future has been hindered by a lack of high performing catalysts. Now, scientists have developed nanoporous molybdenum-based intermetallic compounds that could address this conundrum.
