EXC 3112: Chirality, Spin, and Future Technologies – the Excellence Cluster “Center for Chiral Electronics”
Die Sprecherin Prof. Dr. Katharina Franke erklärt die Forschungsziele des Exzellenzclusters "Center for Chiral Electronics"
What do hands, screws, and modern technologies have in common? Chirality!
An object is called chiral if it does not coincide with its own mirror image. Chiral materials conduct electric current differently depending on the direction of the electron spin.
We demonstrate where chirality occurs and present ideas about the possibilities chiral materials could offer for future electronics.
Location: ground floor between tracts 3 and 4
