For three decades, one quiet crystal has sat at the center of a fierce argument about how exotic superconductors really work.

Scientists have observed an unexpected new behavior in a superconducting material. If physicists can figure out the cause, it could help them to find room-temperature superconductors. When you ...

While superconductors are known to induce weak superconducting behavior in nearby materials, the iron's induced behavior was ...

A physics professor at the University of Nevada, Reno and his colleagues have identified quantum geometry as an opportunity to increase the superconducting temperature of two-dimensional ...

Quantum physicists have shown that it's possible to control and manipulate spin waves on a chip using superconductors for the first time. These tiny waves in magnets may offer an alternative to ...

LK99 is the material that South Korean researchers claimed in early 2023 was a room temperature superconductor. The South Korean Researcher will be reporting new work in two months (March 4, 2024) at ...

Superconductors sit at the heart of some of the most ambitious technologies on the horizon, from lossless power grids to ...

The main researchers working on LK99-like room temperature and room pressure superconductors are in China and South Korea. There have been reports that the China researchers have successfully ...

A shiny gray crystal called platinum-bismuth-two hides an electronic world unlike anything scientists have seen before.
