The lifting, peeling and exfoliation of physisorbed ribbons (or flakes) of 2D material such as graphene off a solid surface are common and important manoeuvres in nanoscience. The feature that makes this case peculiar is the structural…
Understanding chirality transfer from the molecular to the macroscopic scale poses a significant challenge in soft and biological condensed matter physics. Many nanorods of biological origin not only have chiral molecular features but also…
During division in animal cells, the actomyosin cortex has been found to exhibit counter-rotating cortical flows, also known as chiral flows, along the axis of division. Furthermore, such chiral surface flows were shown to influence…
Graphene is a very promising material for nanoelectronics applications due to its unique and remarkable electronic and thermal properties. However, when deposited on metallic electrodes the overall thermal conductivity is significantly…
Moir\'e superstructures arising at twisted 2D interfaces have recently attracted the attention of the scientific community due to exotic quantum states and unique mechanical and tribological behaviors that they exhibit. Here, we predict the…

Massive brute-force compute campaigns relying on demanding ab initio calculations routinely search for novel materials in chemical compound space, the vast virtual set of all conceivable stable combinations of elements and structural…
Sensitivity to molecular chirality is crucial for many fields, from biology and chemistry to the pharmaceutical industry. By generating superchiral light, nanophotonics has brought innovative solutions to reduce the detection volume and…
We develop a theory for the coaxial configuration of a N\'eel-type skyrmion and a Pearl vortex in thin superconductor-chiral ferromagnetic heterostructures. Using direct numerical solution of the Euler-Lagrange equation and micromagnetic…
Chirality arises from the asymmetry of matters, where two counterparts are the mirror image of each other. The interaction between circular-polarization light and quantum materials is enhanced in chiral space groups due to the structural…

Identifying the handedness of chiral molecules is of fundamental importance in chemistry, biology, pharmacy, and medicine. Nanophotonic structures allow us to control light at the nanoscale and offer powerful tools for chiral sensing,…
In this letter, we have demonstrated the possibility to efficiently relay the radiative heat flux between two nanoparticles by opening a smooth channel for heat transfer. By coating the nanoparticles with a silica shell and modifying the…
Chiral crystals offer an unique platform for controlling structural handedness through external stimuli. However, the ability to select between structural enantiomers remains challenging, both theoretically and experimentally. In this work,…
Strong light-matter coupling in chiral cavities has been proposed as an effective way to selectively interact with an enantiomer that shares the same handedness as the cavity's chiral mode. We show that surface plasmons supported by a…
Chirality, a fundamental concept describing an object cannot superpose with its mirror image, is crucial in optics and photonics and leads to various exotic phenomena, such as circular dichroism, and optical activity. Recent findings reveal…
