A breakthrough in chiral capsule tools for advanced optical technologies

Simple encapsulation by terpene-based chiral capsules allows various non-chiral organic dyes to display chiroptical properties in water, without requiring elaborate chemical modifications, scientists report. The present molecular tools could pave the way to advanced optical technologies, spanning the fields of digital storage, biomedicine, and catalysis, to name a few.
