Time crystals represent a new phase of matter proposed by Frank Wilczek, the Nobel laureate of Physics in 2004; they can ...

In recent years, an exotic superconducting state with the finite momentum Cooper pairing known as the pair density wave (PDW) state, which breaks the translational symmetry and shows spatially ...

The results were published in Nature Materials. The results have analogies with molecular systems. Here phases with broken translation symmetry (such as liquid crystals, and ice) exist over a range of ...
