Unique Aspects of Chirality in Inorganic NanocrystalsThe geometric property of chirality relates to objects that cannot be superimposed onto their mirror images. It is fundamental across all hierarchies of nature, from interactions of elementary particles to macroscopic living systems. It is related in biology to recognition between biomolecules and structure-function relations. Most biological molecules ...

What Can Electron Microscopy Tell Us Beyond Structure and Composition? - CANCELEDSpherical aberration correction marks a milestone in the development of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) which allows the quantitative determination of 3D structure and composition of nanostructures with atomic resolution. In combination with in-situ techniques, one can follow the phase transformations, chemical reactions, and dynamic behaviors of materials in ...
Molecular, and more recently, macromolecular synthesis has evolved to an advanced state allowing the creation of remarkably complex organic molecules and well-defined polymers with typical dimensions from 0.5 nm - 10 nm. In contrast, the ability to prepare materials in the 10 nm - 100 micron size regime with controlled ...
