Superconductors and superconducting materials are metals, ceramics, organic materials, or heavily doped semiconductors that conduct electricity without resistance. Superconducting materials can ...

Just over a year ago, a new variety of superconducting material containing iron arsenide layers was discovered 2. In the FeAs layer, iron atoms sit on a square two-dimensional lattice with arsenic ...

Therefore, it is worthwhile to review materials that superconduct. In this chapter, we shall only give a brief introduction to such materials. At present, there are about 7000 known superconducting ...

In 2023, a group of scientists published a controversial paper on a superconducting material containing a rare earth element called lutetium that works at close to ambient temperature and air ...

A Yale-led team has found the strongest evidence yet of a novel type of superconducting material, a fundamental science ...

In a recent study in Nature, scientists reported that moiré materials made from semiconductor materials can also be ...

Yale University researchers have discovered a new type of superconducting material driven by electronic nematicity.

So room temperature "superconducting" materials could revolutionise the electrical grid. Until this point, achieving superconductivity has required cooling materials to very low temperatures.

In a paper for the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Adam Denchfield and a team of UIC scientists proposed three promising new designs for superconducting materials. In computer ...

Made from a high-temperature superconducting material, the magnet has a strength of 20 tesla. (For reference, a common refrigerator magnet is around 0.001 tesla, while the incredibly strong ...
