Chirality is a characteristic of living organisms and is usually caused by chiral chemical structure of constituent molecules. The work by Priyanka Kumari, Bijaya Basnet and others, published in Science on March 22, describes structural chirality in a recently discovered ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal formed by polar molecul...
