Abstract

Many molecules and crystals are chiral, i.e., can exist as right- and left-handed mirror isomers. It is shown that the absolute configuration of monoatomic chiral crystals, including selenium, tellurium, and b-manganese, can be determined using multi-wavelength diffraction of circularly polarized X-ray radiation.
