Sometimes, even the simplest things can set off a quantum phenomenon.
Very simplified toy models help scientists get started, but the real world is far more complex.
Time crystals could help create quantum computing data storage that lasts minutes, new research shows — a huge improvement on the milliseconds-long duration of existing quantum data storage. In the ...
Physicists at NYU have discovered a new type of time crystal—an exotic state of matter whose particles rhythmically “tick” while levitating on sound waves.
A time crystal, a long-life quantum system approaching perpetual motion, has been hooked up to its environment for the first time, unlocking an intriguing way to increase quantum computational and ...
Once considered an oddity of quantum physics, time crystals could be a good building block for accurate clocks and sensors, ...
