Researchers formed stable vortex knots in chiral nematic liquid crystals and used electric pulses to reversibly fuse and split them into different knotted forms. (Nanowerk News) The knots in your ...
A voltage-driven method enables reversible, tunable chiral states in semiconductor materials. (Nanowerk News) A way to electrically modify the chirality of organic–inorganic hybrid materials, in which ...
The knots in your shoelaces are familiar, but can you imagine knots made from light, water, or from the structured fluids that make LCD screens shine? They exist, and in a new Nature Physics study, ...
