Implementing topologically ordered time crystals on quantum processors

Time-translation symmetry breaking. Credit: Nature Communications (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-53077-9 In a new study published in Nature Communications, scientists have implemented the topologically ordered time crystal on a quantum processor for the first time. This marks a new era for quantum technology, since time crystals have been traditionally challenging to combine with topological order. However, achieving … Read more
