Tackling quantum many-body states using an atomically precise, bottom-up approach
Using the breakthrough ESR-STM technique, researchers from the IBS Center for Quantum Nanoscience in a US-based collaboration constructed quantum-mechanically coupled artificial spin chains to reveal their quantum many-body states, including the resonating valence bond state. Nanotechnology has traditionally pursued a top-down approach toward engineering and miniaturization, however, it faces a minimum size limit of a…
