      They built a chain of tellurium instead of a cube or a sheet of it and cut it using a new very accurate technique to be 1 atom wide chain. They verified the endpoints are cut cleanly with radio image microscopy I think.

      That’s the best kind of science article. No catchy headline & too complicated even in a summary
