Grab the love vibes which ATOMICON#1 spreads.

Love vibes propagate as waves from this quantum corral. In the end each of us is made of elementary particles. The emotions that we perceive result from their interactions. ATOMICONS have been brought to life to let us sense this deep truth.

Quantum corrals are 2D structures, built atom by atom on an atomically clean metallic surface using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). We created them by numerically solving the Schrödinger equation for surface electrons in the presence of 52 scattering atoms positioned by us.

Each of these Schrödinger artworks can also be realized and observed by using a scanning tunnel microscope (STM), a type of microscope based on quantum tunnelling and on the ultimate stylus ending with a single atom. The STM can also be used to deliberately move atoms on the surface, allowing to create at the nanoscale.
