Abstract

Complex chiral particles Synthetic colloids are usually smooth, but nature can produce micrometer-scale particles with intricate structure and shape, such as the coccoliths produced by algae. Jiang et al. controlled the self-assembly of gold–cysteine nanoplatelets into a variety of chiral, hierarchically organized colloidal particles by changing the chiral fraction of cysteine and the nucleation temperature. Organic cations created electrostatic repulsions that favored edge assembly of the nanoplatelets, which in turn could create surfaces bearing twisted spikes. Science , this issue p. 642
