Chirality-induced spin selectivity

ID: chirality-induced-spin-selectivity

Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) is a physical phenomenon where chiral molecules exhibit a preference for spinning electrons in a certain direction. This effect is observed in systems that include chiral organic molecules, which are structures that cannot be superimposed on their mirror images, much like left and right hands. The key points about CISS are: 1. **Chirality**: Chiral molecules have non-superimposable mirror images.
