The first direct observation of the orbital structure of an excited hydrogen atom has been made by an international team of researchers. The observation was made using a newly developed “quantum ...

In 2013, physicists used a "quantum microscope" to peer inside a hydrogen atom. Credit: A. S. Stodolna et al., 2013 ...

What you’re looking at is the first direct observation of an atom’s electron orbital — an atom’s actual wave function! To capture the image, researchers utilized a new quantum microscope ...

AN ATOM'S electrons are an ever-shifting quantum melee, but it turns out you can still take their photograph as if they were standing still. A quantum-style microscope has imaged the hydrogen atom ...

A photoionization microscope provides direct observation of the electron orbital of a hydrogen atom. The atom is placed in an electric field E and excited by laser pulses (shown in blue).

In situ visualization of misorientation-dependent hydrogen diffusion at grain boundaries of pure polycrystalline Ni using a hydrogen video imaging system. Acta Materialia , 2024; 263: 119536 DOI ...

Electron microscope sees single hydrogen atoms. 16 Jul 2008 Hamish Johnston. Hydrogen and carbon atoms on graphene. Physicists in the US claim to have used a transmission electron microscope (TEM) to ...

Using a scanning tunneling microscope equipped with a femtosecond terahertz laser, scientists have exploited the quantum properties of a two-atom hydrogen molecule to observe changes in the ...

When the hydrogen cap was removed from a single atom, the atom emitted an electric charge. 2 The charge was conducted through a nearby hydrocarbon molecule to the tip of an electron tunneling ...
