Scientists from Ohio University, Argonne National Laboratory, and the University of Illinois at Chicago used scanning tunneling microscopy to form a charged rare earth molecule on a metal surface and rotate it clockwise and counterclockwise without affecting its charge.
Their findings open up new avenues for research into the atomic-scale manipulation of materials important to the future, ranging from quantum computing.
Performing computation using quantum-mechanical phenomena such as superposition and entanglement.
