Superconducting materials conduct electricity with no resistance and can be used to make powerful magnets, among other things. UC Davis physicist Inna Vishik was recently awarded a $1.25 million grant ...

Superconductivity is a fascinating phenomenon in which certain materials exhibit zero electrical resistance and expel magnetic fields below a characteristic temperature, known as the critical ...

The practical applications of superconductors have been known for decades, but these have been hindered because most superconducting materials have to be cooled with liquid helium to near absolute ...

Last week, a team of South Korean physicists claimed they created a new material that could change the world: a room-temperature superconductor called LK-99. Such a development would mean potentially ...

Scientists have identified the first unconventional superconductor with a chemical composition also found in nature. Scientists from Ames National Laboratory have identified the first unconventional ...

Chinese researchers have achieved a major breakthrough in superconductivity, developing a nickel-based superconductor that ...

Researchers at the University of Houston’s Texas Center for Superconductivity have achieved another first in their quest toward ambient-pressure high-temperature superconductivity, bringing us one ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Our energy future may depend on high-temperature superconducting (HTS) wires. This technology’s ability to carry electricity without resistance at temperatures higher than those ...

a. The results show that superconductivity (SC) and long-range CDW can coexist while increasing strain suppresses superconductivity and enhances CDW order. b. At a strain of 0.15%, short-range CDW ...

The last week of July heralded not one but two scientific breakthroughs that have left the academic community abuzz and may bring us one step closer to the holy grail of fusion energy. Nuclear fusion ...
