Abstract

One hand mapping: By means of scanning tunneling microscopy, solvent‐induced homochirality is shown to emerge in self‐assembled monolayers of achiral molecules at the liquid–solid interface (see picture). The chirality of the solvent directs the macroscopic chirality of the monolayer. The dynamics of the monolayer structure as it evolves towards homochirality are probed by time‐dependent measurements.
