Quantum Nanoscience: Atoms on Surfaces as Quantum Spins — •Andreas Heinrich — IBS Center for Quantum Nanoscience at Ewha Womans University, Seoul, Korea

Quantum Nanoscience is a discipline that combines quantum science with nanoscience. It aims to utilize quantum coherence in solid-state and molecular systems. Among the many basic science questions in this field are open versus closed quantum systems and the controlled interaction of the quantum systems with the host materials. Getting control of those methods and concepts will enable engineered quantum systems with controllable quantum coherence. Possible applications range from quantum sensing to quantum computation. Scanning Tunneling Microscopy is a unique tool in that it allows to image surface with atomic resolution, build structures one atom at a time and measure the structures with high energy and spin resolution - all in one machine. We will outline relevant experiments that enable the STM to become a potent tool of quantum nanoscience.
