Indeed, this is what an international group of researchers based in Germany, Poland and South Korea have now demonstrated is possible
using iron atoms.

Yes, Chopra's argument is like saying that a computer gets it's computing power from somewhere mysteriously within the
atoms of the silicone,
iron, and plastic
used to manufacture it, and not from the integrated circuits and other large components.
Heinrich
used a scanning tunneling microscope to align the
iron atoms so each one takes on a magnetic polarity opposite that of its neighbor.
I knew that heme, the oxygen - carrying molecule in hemoglobin, contained an
iron atom within a porphyrin ring (for more information on porphyrin chemistry see this site at Washburn University), but Dr. Datta - Gupta and his laboratory technician attempted to chemically add different metals such as copper, magnesium, or manganese to porphyrins
using column chromatography.

iron (Fe) single
atom thick membranes.
Approximately 1.1 x 10 to the power of 13 moles of
iron atoms — that's more than 600 million tonnes of the element — are
used by the world's manufacturing industries every year.

iron, manganese, chromium, and titanium, in grapelike bunches of about 1,000
atoms each, embedded within the clay (inset).

used to probe the spin property of the quantum wave function of the Majorana fermion at the end of a chain of
iron atoms on the surface of a superconductor made of lead.
By taking multiple images of the
iron - platinum nanoparticle with an advanced electron microscope at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and
using powerful reconstruction algorithms developed at UCLA, the researchers determined the precise three - dimensional arrangement of
atoms in the nanoparticle.
The researchers then
used the three - dimensional coordinates of the
atoms as inputs into quantum mechanics calculations to determine the magnetic properties of the
iron - platinum nanoparticle.
An array of 96
iron atoms on a copper nitride surface, assembled
using an STM and
used to write a byte, demonstrates how small magnetic storage could shrink and may lead to novel nanomaterials for quantum computers.
Options comes with its own vernacular — covered calls, selling puts, the strike price,
iron condors, etc. — and that requires some getting
used to, but it's not like learning how to split the
atom.
