In a finding that reveals an entirely new state of matter, research published in the journal Science shows that Cooper pairs, electron duos that enable superconductivity, can also conduct el... Read more
A hydrogen-rich material becomes superconductive under high pressure and at minus 23 degrees Celsius Fewer power plants, less greenhouse gases and lower costs: enormous amounts of electricit... Read more
New findings are changing the way we think about superconductivity. Experiments at TU Wien (Vienna) underline the special role of immobile charge carriers, acting as a “glue”, which makes su... Read more
Findings Could Open the Door to a New Era of Physics Researchers at the George Washington University have taken a major step toward reaching one of the most sought-after goals in physics: ro... Read more
Physicists from the University of Konstanz explore superconductivity for information processing Generally speaking, magnetism and the lossless flow of electrical current (“superconduct... Read more
A combination of superconductivity and spin could lead to a revolution in high-performance computing
Researchers have shown that certain superconductors – materials that carry electrical current with zero resistance at very low temperatures – can also carry currents of ‘spin’. The successfu... Read more
Since its discovery in 2004, scientists have believed that graphene may have the innate ability to superconduct. Now Cambridge researchers have found a way to activate that previously dorman... Read more
The quest to know the mysterious recipe for high-temperature superconductivity, which could enable revolutionary advances in technologies that make or use electricity, just took a big leap f... Read more
Superconductivity could have implications for creating technologies like ultra-efficient power grids and magnetically levitating vehicles Physicists at the University of Waterloo have led an... Read more
Building on nearly two decades’ worth of research, a multidisciplinary team at Cornell has blazed a new trail by creating a self-assembled, three-dimensional gyroidal superconductor. U... Read more
