Terahertz pulsations induce chirality in non-chiral crystals
Terahertz Light has the ability to control solid matter at the atomic level, forming left-handed and right-handed chiral structures. Credit: Zhiyang Zeng (MPSD) Chirality refers to objects that cannot be superimposed into mirror images through any combination of rotation or translation, such as a person’s distinct left and right hands. In chiral crystals, the spatial arrangement of the atoms introduces…
