Chirality in the Solid State: Chiral Crystal Structures in Chiral and Achiral Space Groups

Chirality depends on particular symmetries. For crystal structures it describes the absence of mirror planes and inversion centers, and in addition to translations, only rotations are allowed as symmetry elements. However, chiral space groups have additional restrictions on the allowed screw rotatio...
