With pulses of sound through tiny speakers, Cornell physics researchers have clarified the basic nature of a new superconductor. Since it was found to be a superconductor about five years ago, uranium ...

Researchers have devised a new technique to create and control a class of high-temperature superconductors, offering potential for unprecedented forms of superconductivity. The method involves precise ...

Separate two superconductors with a thin layer of material and something strange happens. Their superconductivity — a property driven by paired electrons that allows electricity to flow without energy ...

Researchers just witnessed a superconductor behavior that defies our current understanding of physics. At a certain electron density, quantum fluctuations—the phenomena that make superconductors stop ...

Interview of a Chinese researcher behind the detection of a weak signal indicating a Meissner effect in near-room-temperature superconductors described the differences in their work. UPDATE from the ...

Experiments show Josephson junction-like behavior can arise with only one superconductor, challenging the standard two-superconductor model. (Nanowerk News) Separate two superconductors with a thin ...

Chinese researchers are making variations of LK99 room temperature superconductor materials with more sulfur and copper in the chemistry. They are publishing results with stronger magnetic indications ...

Twist a stack of atom-thin carbon sheets by just the right amount and the material stops behaving like ordinary metal or insulator. Instead, it starts acting like a peculiar kind of superconductor ...

A Nature retraction last week has put to rest the latest claim of room-temperature superconductivity — in which researchers said they had made a material that could conduct electricity without ...
