The shape, size and optical properties of 3-dimensional nanostructures can now be simulated in advance before they are produced directly with high precision on a wide variety of surfaces. Nanoprobes ...

Researchers found a metal with conductivity and polarity that shows second harmonic generation, an optical effect usually limited to non-metals. (Nanowerk News) An international research team led by ...

Polyisocyanides are polymers distinguished by their helical structures, where the helix's winding direction (right- or left-handed) can be controlled through catalysts designed for synthesizing chiral ...
