Researchers have taken a major step forward in studying time crystals—exotic materials with unusual, ...

Researchers have developed a technique that allows them to carve complex three dimensional nanodevices directly from single ...

Physicists have assembled one of the largest and most intricate time crystals yet, using IBM’s latest quantum hardware to push a once-theoretical phase of matter into a new regime of scale and control ...

Physical systems become inherently more complicated and difficult to produce in a lab as the number of dimensions they exist ...

Using a superconducting quantum computer, physicists created a large and complex version of an odd quantum material that has ...

A team of physicists has discovered a surprisingly simple way to build nuclear clocks using tiny amounts of rare thorium. By electroplating thorium onto steel, they achieved the same results as years ...

When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions ...
