Researchers from the University of Cambridge and the Eindhoven University of Technology have developed an organic semiconductor that forces electrons to spiral like a corkscrew.

The semiconductor is designed to be chiral, guiding electrons in a spiral motion and emitting light with a specific “handedness” The material is called triazatruxene ( TAT ) What’s intriguing is its ability to self-assemble into helical stacks.
