Your hands are chiral objects, which means they’re asymmetric but not superimposable. This property is quite interesting when studying the physical properties of matter. A chiral molecule can ...
Chiral objects, like coils or L-shaped blocks, come in either left or right-handed forms; non-chiral ones, like circles or straight lines, do not. Many molecules and materials are naturally chiral ...
Image caption: Emergent spins via CISS effect in chiral objects interact with the magnetized substrates in an enantiospecific manner. The orientation of the anti-parallel spin pair is prescribed ...
