Natural biopolymers have inspired the development of synthetic analogues that can adopt
defined conformations and assemble into 3D architectures. These compounds are mainly …

Research on chiral behaviors of small organic molecules at solid surfaces, including chiral
assembly and synthesis, can not only help unravel the origin of the chiral phenomenon in …

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) with a functionalized tip apex reveals the geometric
and electronic structures of a sample within the same experiment. However, the complex …

Analyzing glycans is challenging because of their structural diversity and complexity and the
lack of analytical techniques capable of resolving pools of similar glycan structures. A new …

Glycans, consisting of covalently linked sugar units, are a major class of biopolymers
essential to all known living organisms. To better understand their biological functions and …
