Halogen bonds were first proposed as an activating interaction in 2008, but this alternative type of organocatalysis was ...

RIKEN physicists have discovered for the first time why the magnitude of the electron flow depends on direction in a special ...

Light that twists as it travels and materials whose internal order is knotted like a pretzel are starting to collide in the ...

Scientists have made a significant leap forward in the field of chiral molecules. The team achieved near-complete separation in quantum states for these essential components of life. This discovery ...

RIKEN researchers have discovered how right-handed molecules in our cells can give rise to cells that are not symmetrical ...

For three decades, one quiet crystal has sat at the center of a fierce argument about how exotic superconductors really work.

The direction in which spin information is injected into chiral materials affects its ability to pass through them. These chiral 'gateways' could be used to design energy-efficient spintronic devices ...

RIKEN physicists have discovered for the first time why the magnitude of the electron flow depends on direction in a special kind of magnet1. This ...

In the second episode of Death Stranding, you’ll come across some golden, hand-shaped crystals dotted across the ground as you’re making your way toward the Waystation West of Capital Knot City. But ...
