Chiral One Dimensional Enchainment of Metals
Semiconducting polymers have enabled the development of highly successful technologies such as flexible solar cells and OLED displays. Advances in synthetic chemistry allow precise tailoring of the electronic properties of soluble and processable materials. In the coming decades, a transition to chiral versions of these materials could not only enable the emergence of new technologies, including spintronics and quantum computing, but also increase the energy efficiency of OLED displays by 100%. Existing strategies for developing chiral semiconducting polymers fall short in achieving the necessary performance levels for light polarization, especially when high energy conversion efficiency is…
