India, Sept. 8 -- The Government of India issued the following news release:
Cholesterol can be used to control the spin of electrons-an invisible quantum property that could contribute to the development of energy efficient next generation spintronic devices.
Cholesterol, the fat like substance which is typically related to heart diseases serves as an ideal platform for constructing supramolecular based spintronic materials.
This is because it enables precise control over molecular properties due to its intrinsic handedness (chirality) and flexibility.
Scientists from Institute of Nano Science and Technology (INST), Mohali, an autonomous institute of the Department of Science and Technology (DST) have introduced cholesterol-based nano...
