Scanning probe microscopy. A tiny sharpened tip, such as that on a scanning tunneling microscope, can move atoms and create atomic-scale images. If many developmental hurdles can be overcome, the technology holds the promise of being suitable for storing bits of information by moving atoms on or off a surface. 1, record 1, English, - atomic%2Dscale%20image
