Researchers Achieve Breakthrough in Creating Reconfigurable Light-Based Quasicrystals
An international research team has created the first reconfigurable polariton quasicrystal using a unique optical technique. The breakthrough demonstrates long-range order and nontrivial phase synchronization in an aperiodic structure, revealing new quantum behaviors.
Breakthrough in Quantum Material Science
An international team of researchers has reportedly created the first reconfigurable polariton two-dimensional quasicrystal, according to findings published in Science Advances. The collaboration between Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology, University of Iceland, University of Warsaw, and the Institute of Spectroscopy of the Russian Academy of Sciences has demonstrated that this unique state of matter exhibits long-range order and a novel type of phase synchronization. Sources indicate this discovery opens new pathways for research into exotic phenomena such as supersolids and superfluidity in aperiodic settings.
