Then we used the B23 beamline at Diamond Light Source to 'read' the film using circular dichroism (CD), a type of spectroscopy, and recorded the CD spectra in transmission mode." The spectra were ...

This feature allows the exhibiting of optical properties such as circular dichroism and optical rotation in polyisocyanides, making them stable, optically active polymers. The research team ...
