Solid-state continuous time crystal in a polariton condensate with a built-in mechanical clock | Science

Time crystals (TCs) are many-body systems that display spontaneous breaking of time translation symmetry. We demonstrate a TC by using driven-dissipative condensates of microcavity exciton-polaritons, spontaneously formed from an incoherent particle … Time crystals (TCs) are many-body systems that display spontaneous breaking of time translation symmetry.
