Single-shot readout of the nuclear spin of an on-surface atom
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
Researchers achieved single-shot readout of a titanium-49 atom's nuclear spin using a scanning tunneling microscope, revealing a surprisingly long lifetime of 5.3 seconds. They explored how this lifetime is affected by electron tunneling and radio frequency signals, offering atomic-level insights into nuclear spin relaxation.
