Remember:
1. Einstein's idea that mass and energy are equivalent (E=mc2)
2. Ernst Planck's idea that every energy is associated with a frequency.
3. De Broglie's idea that matter can act as a wave
4. Einstein's gravitational redshift idea.
Playing around with matter waves = playing with time.
Introducing the Compton clock.
A rock is a clock: Physicist uses matter to tell time
Next stage:
The antimatter clock - aka the DeLorean time machine time indicator.

Müller hopes to push his technique to even smaller particles, such as electrons or even positrons, in the latter case creating an antimatter clock. He is hopeful that someday he'll be able to tell time using quantum fluctuations in a vacuum.
