Unlocking temperature-controlled nanomaterials for future electronics - DST
9+ hour, 58+ min ago (180+ words) The researchers discovered that at room temperature, these molecules self-assemble into tiny circular nanostructures called nanodisks. These nanodisks display an optical property that enables them to interact with polarized light in a distinctive way (chiroptical activity). Upon heating, the nanodisks…...
