Highlights with ‘VCD’

Photonically active bowtie nanoassemblies with chirality continuum

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, Dr. Prashant Kumar, in the group of Prof. Kotov at the University of Michigan (USA), reports on bowtie nanostructured microparticles with a chemical structure displaying chirality...

Improved absolute configuration determination of complex molecules with VCD

All biological systems are three-dimensional and determining the exact configuration of the system is important for pharmaceutical applications and drug design. However, determining 3D-structures is complicated and difficult. Vibrational circular dichroism is a method using...
