Monash Science & @fzuavcr.bsky.social researchers made, potentially, the world’s smallest scannable QR code: just 50×50 nm2, built atom by atom using individual silver atoms. Read more 👉 www.monash.edu/science/news... @benjamin-lowe.bsky.social @nanosurflab.bsky.social @czechacademy.bsky.social

A promotional graphic titled "Monash and FZU researchers build the world’s smallest QR code atom by atom." The left side shows three smiling male scientists (L-R: Dr Oleksandr Stetsovych, Dr Benjamin Lowe, and Dr Julian Ceddia) standing in a laboratory in front of computer monitors. An inset image at the top shows a microscopic, glowing purple and orange square QR code with a scale bar indicating "25 nm."

Spin states and charge transfer 🧲 Now in @jacs.acspublications.org, we show the coexistence of two Au porphyrin species with different properties due to charge transfer variations 🧪 ⚛️ 🔬 🧑‍💻 @manishmitharwall.bsky.social @benjamin-lowe.bsky.social @fzuavcr.bsky.social 🔗 doi.org/10.1021/jacs...

Atomic-scale manipulation studies never get old. This one, led by @benjamin-lowe.bsky.social, uses the #STM tip to drive a #Kondo seesaw in a #2D #MOF on Ag(111).

Distinguishing between magnetic states at the atomic-scale 🧪⚛️ Now in @jacs.acspublications.org, we show that SPM with NiCp2 molecules can discriminate between nearly degenerate magnetic ground states 🧲🔬🧑‍💻 @fzuavcr.bsky.social @imdeanano.bsky.social @oistedu.bsky.social 👇 doi.org/10.1021/jacs...

Road trip! 🚗🧪⚛️ Earlier this year, Pavel, @manishmitharwall.bsky.social, @maleminore.bsky.social, and @benjamin-lowe.bsky.social from our group attended the spinquest.ch conference in Ascona, Switzerland 🔬🧑‍💻 A week of new friends, great science, and beautiful scenery! ⛰️ @fzuavcr.bsky.social
