Physicists at Ohio University and the University of Hamburg in Germany have captured the first images of atomic spin in action. The research indicates that scientists can observe and perhaps manipulate spin, a finding that may impact future development of nanoscale magnetic storage, quantum computers and spintronic devices. The images have been published in a new Nature Nanotechnology study. read more
