Vacuum is often thought of as empty, but in fact it is teeming with fleeting energy fluctuations—virtual photons popping in ...

A new platform for engineering chiral electron pathways offers potential fresh insights into a quantum phenomenon discovered ...

Researchers have developed what amounts to a programmable platform for quantum chirality that could provide new approaches to ...

The discovery is based on a unique aspect of the material where electrons can be separated by their chirality, or handedness, similar to DNA ... ten times larger than ever previously achieved,” said ...

You’d think there would be a law against this, and scientists thought there was, but somehow it happens, and it could help ...

Chirality—the property of an object that is distinct from its mirror image—has long captivated scientists across biology, chemistry, and physics. The phenomenon is sometimes called "handedness ...

Why do electrons favor one spin over another in twisted environments? A newly developed system lets us explore this quantum ...

(Courtesy: D Ayuso) Light that encodes chirality in time is efficient at driving chiral electronic currents inside the molecules, he tells Physics World. These currents then interact with the ...
