Learn about how Mark Raizen and his team at UT Austin have developed the world's highest resolution atom lens. An atom lens is analogous to a glass lens used in an optical microscope or magnifying ...

Scientists tracked an atom's nuclear spin in real time with a tunneling microscope, finding it stable for seconds, opening paths to better magnetic control. (Nanowerk News) Researchers from Delft ...

A simple technique allows a high-tech microscope to sense an individual atom’s spin, the microscopic equivalent of a bar magnet’s magnetic axis and a crucial component of a material’s magnetic and ...

Artist impression, based on actual measurement data, of the nuclear spin of an atom flipping between distinct quantum states. The flipping was observed as a fluctuation in the electrical current ...
