Recent advances in atomic-scale imaging and manipulation are forging new paths in the exploration of quantum phenomena, with atomic spin dynamics and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) lying at the ...

The field of optical atomic clocks, in combination with ultracold atoms, has transformed precision timekeeping and metrology. By utilising laser-cooled atoms confined in optical lattices, researchers ...

Trapping ultracold atoms with laser light let researchers magnify and then image the wave functions of atoms that were previously too close together to look like ...
