This review highlights recent efforts on applying electron microscopy (EM) to soft (including
biological) nanomaterials. We will show how developments of both the hardware and …

Spontaneous deracemizations is a challenging, multidisciplinary subject in current chirality
research. In the absence of any chiral inductors, an achiral substance or a racemic …

Polarization, a fundamental property of light, has been widely exploited from quantum
physics to high-dimensional optics. Materials with intrinsic optical anisotropy, such as …

Fingerprint plots of Hirshfeld surfaces were used to locate and analyze the deficiencies in
various methodologies employed in the determination of the relative energies of five …

One of the great challenges in stereochemistry is the explanation of why some molecules
resolve spontaneously while others do not. In this critical review the recent advances in the …

Crystal morphologies are predicted from data stored in files in the CIF format
(crystallographic information file standard of the International Union of Crystallography) on …

Reconfigurable metamaterials have emerged as promising platforms for manipulating the
spectral and spatial properties of terahertz waves without being limited by the characteristics …

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy has been widely used to study (bio)
molecules in solution. However, its solid‐state applications have been restricted due to …

Anisotropic photonic materials with linear dichroism are crucial components in many
sensing, imaging, and communication applications. Such materials play an important role as …

Tailor-made additives (TMAs) have found a role in crystal morphology engineering and
control by specific binding to crystal surfaces through stereo-chemical recognition. The utility …
