Prof. Dr. K. George Thomas, Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Thiruvananthapuram, Indien
with the titel:
" Emergent Chiroptical Properties in Assembled Molecules and Materials: From Native Chirality to Global Chirality “.
Abstract:
The emergence of chiroptical properties in molecules and materials through their asymmetric organizations has fascinated humankind in general and the scientific community in particular. By adopting molecules, plasmonic systems, and semiconductor quantum dots as examples, the translation of ‘local’ chirality in these building blocks to the ‘global’ chirality when they self-assemble as nanoobjects will be explained.
