Illuminating Chirality: Twisting Crystals with Light

Credit: PixabayChirality, a key property in biological, chemical, and physical processes, plays a vital role in enabling unique interactions with polarized light and chiral molecules. As a result, chiral solids are highly valued for applications in catalysis, sensing, and optical technologies. However, chirality in crystals has traditionally remained fixed during their formation, as altering...
