Yo-yo crystals from a new kind of material
Yo-yo crystals from a new kind of material
The crystals are formed from two concave discs attached to a central axle. From the side, the discs look like flowers with clearly defined petals. These flowers have a slight spiralling arrangement, meaning that the yo-yos have a chiral structure. Despite their complex shape, they are single crystals – confirmed by x-ray crystallography…
The yo-yo crystals are made from achiral components –…
