Science Daily  February 23, 2023 An international team of researchers (Israel, Japan) developed and demonstrated conceptually, a new type of tool — the quantum twisting microscope (QTM) — that could create novel quantum materials while simultaneously gazing into the most fundamental quantum nature of their electrons. It is capable of performing local interference experiments at its tip. The QTM is based on a unique van der Waals tip, allowing the creation of pristine two-dimensional junctions, which provide a multitude of coherently interfering paths for an electron to tunnel into a sample. With the addition of a continuously scanned twist angle […]
