| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Extensive research has been conducted on chirality-related phenomena in organic molecular systems including metal complexes and polymers. Contrarily, the subject of chirality in inorganic nanomaterials has emerged only in the last two decades, while some minerals have long been known to possess intrinsically chiral crystalline structures, as represented by quartz. Semiconductor nanocrystals and metal clusters with intrinsic chirality (crystallographic chirality) constitute an important part of novel chiral nanomaterials. We have made efforts to control the handedness in such chiral nanomaterials through interactions with organic molecules including chiral ligands. The handedness of atomic arrangement in the nanoparticles and clusters could be regulated by means of control of energy landscape in the nanoparticle growth. The structural control could be a result of interplay of chiralities between organic ligands and inorganic compounds.
