(Nanowerk News) Photoexcitation, particularly photoionization, represents a vital aspect of light-matter interactions in nature, with applications spanning photosynthesis in plants, vision in biology, ...

Physicists have detected laser-assisted electron scattering using circularly polarized light for the first time, revealing new ways to probe atomic-scale chirality.

In the development of chiral materials, electron microscopy, polarimeters, or other spectroscopic methods are commonly used to analyze and discuss the chirality or asymmetry of materials. With the ...

The photoexcitation, and especially photoionization, is one of the most important manifestations of the light-matter interaction in nature, ranging from photosynthesis in plants and vision in biology ...
