A quantum solid, made of electrons

Amazing stuff! This might be a breakthrough for more to come!

"[The researchers created] the most sensitive detector in the world for an electric field: This detector can sense -- and identify -- the electric field of a single electron. The detector is made of a nanowire that “floats” over a material without touching it, but which can sense the minuscule electric field of each individual electron within."

Could this new detector even become a challenge for the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle?
