Until now, atoms have never been imaged interacting freely in space, but a new technique known as non-resolved microscopy has changed that. MIT physicists were able to successfully capture images ...

Scientists now have a new approach to study never-before-seen quantum phenomena. Physicists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have produced the first images of atoms freely ...

Using optical tweezers composed of laser light, researchers have developed a novel way to manipulate individual atoms and create a state of hyper-entanglement. This breakthrough could lead to new ...

A world-record-breaking close-up of atoms in a crystal The highest-resolution image of atoms so far has been captured, breaking a record set in 2018. David Muller at Cornell University in Ithaca ...

Researchers have broken the record for the highest resolution image ever captured of individual atoms, creating a shot that is 'zoomed in' some 100 million times.. These images are so fine-tuned ...

Putting unusually large atoms in a box with cold copper sides helped researchers control them for an unprecedented 50 minutes at room-temperature, an improvement necessary for building more ...
