BCS theory has been widely successful at describing elemental bulk superconductors. Yet, as the length scales of such superconductors approach atomic limit, dimensionality well environment superconductor can lead to drastically different and unpredictable superconducting behavior.

Abstract A magnetic atom epitomizes the scaling limit for information storage. Individual atomic spins have recently exhibited remanence, a requirement memory. However, such memory has been only realized on thin insulating surfaces, removing potential tunability via electronic gating or exchange-driven coupling. Here, we show previously unobserved mechanism single-atom storage based bistability in orbital population, so-called valency, of an individual Co semiconducting black phosphorus...
