Scientists have yet to find a superconductor that works at room temperature—and that’s a big problem
But the hunt for a superconductor—that is, a material that can conduct electricity without resistance—that can operate at room temperature is nothing new. A Dutch physicist discovered the phenomenon ...
After a raucous year of supposed breakthroughs in superconducting physics, 2023 is looking like it’s going to end with a whimper. This summer, LK-99 was the room-temperature superconductor du jour.
The search for materials that can conduct electricity at room temperature without losing energy is one of the greatest and most consequential challenges of modern physics: loss-free power transmission ...
Electrons are starting to misbehave in ways that used to belong only in low-temperature physics labs, and the results are beginning to show up at everyday temperatures. Instead of drifting sluggishly ...
On Monday, the journal Nature released a report from Nanjing University researchers that had attempted to replicate an earlier paper that described a compound that superconducted at room temperature ...
