Vortexes tune the chirality of graphene oxide and its non-covalent hosts

Abstract

Graphene oxide (GO) is one of the most appealing bidimensional materials able to interact non-covalently with achiral molecules and to act as chiral inducers. Vortexes can tune chirality and, consequently transfer a specific handedness to non-covalent host molecules, either when dispersed in water or when deposited on a solid surface.
