A team at CU Boulder has made a curious state of matter in which particles move constantly—like a clock with hands and gears ...

First theorized in 2012, researchers are beginning to find new ways to implement this mind-bending technology.

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered ...

Everything is born out of nothing. All you do is shine a light, and this whole world of time crystals emerges,” said University of Colorado Boulder physicist Ivan Smalyukh. In a field where most ...

That’s close to what physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have created—a new kind of time crystal made from ...

Physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have created the first time crystal that humans can actually see, using liquid crystals that swirl into never-ending patterns when illuminated by light ...

Discovery of Planckian time limit offers new opportunities for quantum technologies. A collaborative team of researchers in ...

In a dim laboratory in Boulder, Colorado, a patch of liquid crystals has begun to move—slowly, rhythmically, endlessly. No batteries, no motors, no outside force driving the dance. Just light. What ...

Although once thought to be impossible and in violation of the laws of thermodynamics, time crystals were first observed ...

In a major step toward realizing memory systems that works as flexibly as the random-access memory (RAM) in today’s classical computers, researchers at ICFO have developed an array of ten individually ...

The Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems IPMS and the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) have achieved groundbreaking results in generating arbitrary light distributions. These ...
