Unidirectional rotary motion in achiral molecular motors.
Control of the direction of motion is an essential feature of biological rotary motors and results from the intrinsic chirality of the amino acids from which the motors are made. In synthetic autonomous light-driven rotary motors, point chirality is transferred to helical chirality, and this governs their unidirectional rotation. However, achieving directional rotary motion in an achiral molecu...
متن کاملChemistry in motion--unidirectional rotating molecular motors.
Molecules are in constant motion, if not frozen around 0 K, but their Brownian motion is random. Overcoming this randomizing effect and generating directional motion at the molecular level with artificial systems is still a challenge. Research in this area is inspired by the vision of transferring the concept of an engine or a motor to the molecular level. That this is possible is illustrated b...
متن کاملControlled motion of electrically neutral microparticles by pulsed direct current
A controlled motion of electrically neutral microparticles in a conductive liquid at high temperatures has not yet been realized under the uniform direct electric current field. We propose a simple method, which employs pulsed direct current to a conductive liquid metal containing low-conductivity objects at high temperature. The electric current enables the low-conductivity particles to pass f...
متن کاملExperimental realization of self-guiding unidirectional electromagnetic edge states.
We present an experimental demonstration of self-guiding electromagnetic edge states existing along the zigzag edge of a honeycomb magnetic photonic crystal. These edge states are shown to possess unidirectional propagation characteristics that are robust against various types of defects and obstacles. In particular, they allow for the unidirectional transport of electromagnetic energy without ...
متن کاملUnidirectional thermal expansion in edge-sharing BO4 tetrahedra contained KZnB3O6
Borates are among a class of compounds that exhibit rich structural diversity and find wide applications. The formation of edge-sharing (es-) BO4 tetrahedra is extremely unfavored according to Pauling's third and fourth rules. However, as the first and the only es-borate obtained under ambient pressure, es-KZnB3O6 shows an unexpected high thermal stability up to its melting point. The origin of...
