The chiral Au VC NPs with intense optical chirality were employed as electron-spin filters, which display much better catalytic performances (higher four-electron selectivity) toward ORR than their ...

To improve the economics of the separation process, we developed the concept of coupling CCh with achiral chromatography (ACh). In this concept, the CCh step is used to enrich the enantiomeric mixture ...

Further manipulation during the process resulted in liquid crystal assembly pathways that were either achiral or chiral. Both resulted in a clear improvement in efficiency and stability of the OSC ...

A research team has discovered that achiral hard banana-shaped particles can spontaneously form exotic structures like skyrmions and blue phase III phases. Skyrmions are tiny vortex-like ...

(Nanowerk News) A research team has discovered that achiral hard banana-shaped particles can spontaneously form exotic structures like skyrmions and blue phase III phases. Skyrmions are tiny ...

The analyses of these products were limited to the easiest adaptable technology at the time, which was achiral reversed phase chromatography. For a time, this was sufficient, as the focus of the ...

Researchers at the University of Ottawa have found that engineered achiral (symmetric) materials, called achiral plasmonic metasurfaces, can absorb light differently depending on the handedness of the ...

They found that engineered achiral (symmetric) materials, called achiral plasmonic metasurfaces, can absorb light differently depending on the handedness of the wavefront of light. This was surprising ...
