Author(s): Jose Reina-Galvez,Hoang-Anh Le, Hong Thi Bui, Soo-hyon Phark, Nicolas Lorente, Christoph Wolf Abstract: The realization of electron-spin resonance at the single-atom level using scanning tunneling microscopy has opened avenues for coherent quantum sensing and quantum state manipulation at the ultimate size limit. This allows us to build many-body Hamiltonians and the study of their…
