Crystallization abounds in nature and industrial practice. A plethora of indispensable
products ranging from agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals to battery materials are …

Plasmonic manipulation using well-designed triangular trimeric gold nanostructures
achieves a giant (greater than 50%) crystal enantiomeric excess (CEE) of sodium chlorate …

Chlorine is ubiquitous on Mars, some of it in the form of oxy-chlorine salts. Chlorine-
containing salts have been found at several landing sites, including that of Phoenix and …

We reversibly controlled phase conversion between a microdroplet of a NaClO3 unsaturated
aqueous solution and a metastable single crystal, which is usually a short-lived phase in …

Studies on chiral spectroscopy have recently demonstrated strong enhancement of chiral
light-matter interaction in the chiral near-field of Mie resonance in high-refractive-index …

We report on a study of laser-induced nucleation (LIN) of sodium chlorate in supersaturated
aqueous solutions using focused nanosecond laser pulses at high energy densities (420 kJ …

Chiral symmetry breaking during the chiral crystallization from a sodium chlorate (NaClO3)
aqueous solution is an intriguing phenomenon because it provides insights into the prebiotic …

The control of crystallization not only impacts the production of functional crystalline
materials or pharmaceuticals but also provides profit to investigate the fundamental …

We provide a novel laser-induced crystallization mechanism which explains crystallization
induced by visible laser trapping of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) at the air/unsaturated …

In situ liquid cell transmission electron microscopy (LC-TEM) is an innovative method for
studying the processes involved in the formation of crystals in liquids. However, it is difficult …
