Crystal Field Effect and Electric Field Screening in Multilayer Graphene with and without Twist

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu

We address the intrinsic polarization and screening of an external electric field in a broad range of ordered and twisted configurations of multilayer graphene, using an ab initio approach combining density functional theory and the Wannier function formal ...

Correlation between Optical Activity and the Helical Molecular Orbitals of Allene and Cumulenes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner

Helical frontier molecular orbitals (MOs) appear in disubstituted allenes and even-n cumulenes. Chiral molecules are optically active, but while these molecules are single-handed chiral, p-orbitals of both helicities are present. Here we computationally ex ...

Absolute Structure from Scanning Electron Microscopy

Philip Johannes Walter Moll

The absence of centrosymmetry in chiral and polar crystal structures is the reason for many technical relevant physical properties like optical birefringence or ferroelectricity. Other chirality related properties that are actually intensively investigated ...

Twisted Bilayer Graphene Quantum Dots for Chiral Nanophotonics

Twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) is a two-dimensional chiral material whose optical activity is remarkably strong for its atomic thickness. While the chiral optical properties of TBG are currently well understood, the optical activity of quantum dots (QDs) m ...

Chiral fermion asymmetry in high-energy plasma simulations

Jennifer Waltraud Schober

The chiral magnetic effect (CME) is a quantum relativistic effect that describes the appearance of an additional electric current along a magnetic field. It is caused by an asymmetry between the number densities of left- and right-handed fermions, which ca ...

Palladium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Cacchi Reaction: Asymmetric Synthesis of Axially Chiral 2,3-Disubstituted Indoles

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Hua Wu, Yuping He

We report herein the first examples of a palladiumcatalyzed enantioselective Cacchi reaction for the synthesis of indoles bearing a chiral C2-aryl axis. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)2 and (R,R)-QuinoxP* ligand, reaction of N-aryl(alkyl)s ...

Handedness-dependent quasiparticle interference in the two enantiomers of the topological chiral semimetal PdGa

Roland Widmer, Samuel Thomas Stolz, Yi-Chiang Sun, Timur Kim

It has recently been proposed that combining chirality with topological band theory results in a totally new class of fermions. Understanding how these unconventional quasiparticles propagate and interact remains largely unexplored so far. Here, we use sca ...

A Subwavelength Microwave Bandpass Filter Based on a Chiral Waveguide

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Maliheh Khatibi Moghaddam

Wave manipulation at a subwavelength scale has recently attracted significant interest, especially for low-frequency wave propagation, from acoustic to microwave devices. Recently, a few methods achieving subwavelength routing using locally resonant metama ...

Generation of chiral asymmetry via helical magnetic fields

Ruth Durrer, Jennifer Waltraud Schober

It is well known that helical magnetic fields undergo a so-called inverse cascade by which their correlation length grows due to the conservation of magnetic helicity in classical ideal magnetohydro-dynamics (MHD). At high energies above approximately 10 M ...

Catalytic Enantioselective Functionalizations of C-H Bonds by Chiral Iridium Complexes

Nicolai Cramer, Jin Fay Tan, Qui-Hien Nguyen, Adrien Jules Louis Madron Du Vigné

The development of catalytic enantioselective transformations, enabling the construction of complex molecular scaffolds from simple precursors, has been a long-standing challenge in organic synthesis. Recent achievements in transition-metal catalyzed enant ...

Chiral Spin-Wave Velocities Induced by All-Garnet Interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction in Ultrathin Yttrium Iron Garnet Films

Dirk Grundler, Ping Che, Peng Gao, Haiming Yu, Yuehui Li, Sa Tu, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang, Song Liu, Tao Liu

Spin waves can probe the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), which gives rise to topological spin textures, such as skyrmions. However, the DMI has not yet been reported in yttrium iron garnet (YIG) with arguably the lowest damping for spin waves. In ...
