Abstract
Helicenes represent an important class of chiral organic material with promising optoelectronic properties. Hence, functionalization of surfaces with helicenes is a key step towards new organic material devices. This review presents different aspects of adsorption and modification of metal surfaces with different helicene species. Topics addressed are chiral crystallization, that is, 2D conglomerate versus racemate crystallization, breaking of mirror-symmetry in racemates, chirality-induced spin selectivity, and stereoselective on-surface chemistry.
期刊介绍:
The main aim of the journal is to publish original contributions of scientific work on the role of chirality in chemistry and biochemistry in respect to biological, chemical, materials, pharmacological, spectroscopic and physical properties.
Papers on the chemistry (physiochemical, preparative synthetic, and analytical), physics, pharmacology, clinical pharmacology, toxicology, and other biological aspects of chiral molecules will be published.
