"Cutting Time: Insane Physics Experiment Creates Slits with Lasers"

Scientists have created "slits" in time using lasers, allowing them to send light through the slits and change the color of an ultra-brief laser pulse. The findings lay the foundation for advances in analog computers, which may be able to read and write data imprinted on beams of light instead of relying on digital bits. The experiment could also deepen our understanding of the nature of light and its interactions with materials. The researchers utilized indium tin oxide (ITO), a material found in most smartphone screens, to create the slits in time.
