images literally built out of individual atoms. The images are the work of IBM scientists who created the unique artwork with a two-ton machine called the Scanning Tunneling Microscope that moves ...

“Capturing, positioning and shaping atoms to create an original motion picture on the atomic-level is a precise science and entirely novel,” said Andreas Heinrich, Principal Investigator, IBM ...

Talk about some tiny pixels: Researchers at IBM have created ... After all the atoms in the frame are in the correct spot, the researchers use the same needle to take a “picture” of the ...

Engineers carefully dragged a sharp needle along a copper surface to attract the atoms and move them into place. The "Star Trek" photos aren't the only pieces of "atom art" created by IBM this year.

The atoms themselves are on a sheet of ... In addition to creating the movie, the researchers at IBM have also created Star Trek-related images for the app related to the new move Star Trek ...

Scientists at IBM Research say they have figured out for the first time how to record rapid changes at the level of individual atoms. Until now, it has usually taken hours to get a picture of what ...

IBM used advanced microscopy tools and techniques to image how charge is redistributed and arranged when chemical bonds are formed between atoms and molecules on surfaces. The research ...

IBM took this technique to its research facilities. Scientists operated what is called a scanning tunneling microscope, whose robotic features were used to move the atoms and take the images to ...

IBM Research has successfully stored one magnetic bit of data with just 12 atoms of iron ... describe -- it's easier if you just look at the picture on the right, or watch the video embedded ...

IBM gets up close with atomic behavior (images) Aspects such as magnetic properties, how long an atom can record and store information and the interplay of atoms and energy transfer were largely ...
