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 that 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 f.
