"Discovery of Photon-like Electrons in Four-Dimensional Material"

Scientists have discovered a method to selectively observe Dirac electrons in materials using electron spin resonance, allowing for the determination of their scope of action and energies in a four-dimensional world consisting of positions (x, y, z) and energy (E). This advancement in understanding Dirac electrons reveals that their velocity is anisotropic and depends on their direction and location, rather than being a constant velocity of light, potentially leading to unprecedented electronic properties in materials for efficient computation and communication.

Advancements in Quantum Microscopy: Probing Single Electron Spins for Novel Applications

Physicists at the University of Regensburg have developed a novel microscope that can manipulate the quantum state of individual electrons using atomic force microscopy. By integrating electron spin resonance into the microscope, they can detect the quantum state of single molecules, allowing for the determination of their composition and the manipulation of electron spin. This technique has potential applications in quantum computing and understanding decoherence at the atomic scale.

Advancements in Single-Molecule Electron Spin Resonance Using Atomic Force Microscopy

Scientists have developed a new technique called electron spin resonance atomic force microscopy (ESR-AFM) that allows for the measurement of electron spin resonance (ESR) at the single-molecule level. By using a combination of atomic force microscopy and radio-frequency magnetic fields, researchers were able to drive and probe ESR transitions in individual pentacene molecules. The technique provides atomic-scale local information and offers long coherence times, making it a promising tool for studying quantum systems and conducting fundamental quantum-sensing experiments.
