Certain advanced technologies, such as 3D displays ... exhibited by chiral molecules holds great promise for applications in ...

By manipulating the processing conditions when printing the films ... the process resulted in liquid crystal assembly pathways that were either achiral or chiral. Both resulted in a clear ...

Truly chiral phonons -- i.e., rotating and propagating atomic motions seen in a crystal lattice -- have never been observed in a bulk 3D material. However, now, Tokyo Tech researchers have ...

In an invited review paper published on Featured Issue of Advanced Liquid Crystal Photonics ... such as biological science, 3D display, information encryption, chiral spintronics, and ...

The alloy formed under the extreme conditions of metal 3D printing, a new way to make metal ... A traditional crystal is any solid made of atoms or molecules in repeating patterns.

the team determined that the chiral compound spontaneously formed 2D sheets (which look like herringbone fabric) and then stacked themselves into a periodic 3D structure of an ordered crystal.

“Our experiment discovered a new type of so-called chiral phonons where atoms move in circles in an atomic monolayer crystal of tungsten diselenide.” Hanyu Zhu, the lead author of the study and a ...
