A surprising connection has been found, between two seemingly very different classes of superconductors. In a new material, atoms are distributed irregularly, but still manage to create long-range ...

This video explores how superconductors work, their current applications, and the biggest challenges scientists face in unlocking their full potential. Could we be on the verge of a breakthrough ...

Imagine a world in which free-floating electric vehicles charge wirelessly as they glide down highways, laptops are hundreds ...

Imagine electric cars that charge wirelessly while driving, computers that are hundreds of times faster, and clean energy ...

Superconductors are one major step closer to practical use thanks to new work from Columbia University physicists.

Superconductors have long been celebrated for their unique ability to conduct electricity with zero resistance and repel ...

[the researchers] prove its worth as a platform for understanding why and how superconductivity emerges,” according to the Institute. The work is described in the Science paper ‘Coexistence of ...

The work is published in Nature Communications. Pressure, layers, and superconductivity—decoding the clues We focused ...

Superconductors don’t exhibit electrical ... because otherwise they don’t really work for AC current. On the other hand, we use AC partly as a hedge against losses, so if you were willing ...

Researchers at QuTech in Delft have combined superconductors and quantum dots to observe and manipulate so-called Majorana ...

Recent observations at high temperatures and extreme pressures tantalize, but not all experts are convinced. (Inside Science) ...

Finding confirms that electron pairing in these high-temperature, high-pressure superconductors is mediated by phonons ...
