New vibes in magnetic resonance detection. (detecting magnetic resonance in biological molecules)

By using the technology that made possible both the scanning tunneling microscope and the atomic force microscope, researchers have now devised an extremely sensitive method for detecting magnetic resonance. This detection technique - which relies on the vibration of a tiny sliver of silicon nitride rather than the activation of an electromagnetic circuit - represents a potentially important step toward attaining significantly higher resolution than that achievable using conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

"This is a new way of doing magnetic resonance, and it seems to be very sensitive and very amenable to high spatial resolution," says Daniel Rugar of the IBM ...
