Caption

A probe (shown here as a red wave) is scanned until it resonantly excites spins in the crystal. Excitation is shown as a single spin flip. A site-resolving imaging objective collects fluorescence from the chain. CCD images are used to determine properties of the system such as an energy level diagram.
