Scientists have found a key process required for superconductivity occurring at higher temperatures than previously thought. It could be a small but significant step in the search for one of the "holy ...

Electron movement and structures described in quantum physics allow researchers to better understand how and why materials like superconductors behave as they do. Rice University researchers Jianwei ...

A new study has uncovered important behavior in the flow of electric current through quantum superconductors, potentially advancing the development of future technologies like quantum computing. A new ...

Researchers have systematically charted a superconducting dome in thin films of strontium-doped lanthanum nickelate, ...

Using muon spin rotation at the Swiss Muon Source SmS, researchers discovered that a quantum phenomenon associated with magnetic response varies with depth in the Kagome superconductor RbV₃Sb₅. This ...

For the first time, physicists have demonstrated that a material's superconductivity can be altered by coupling it to an in-built, light-confining cavity. In experiments published in Nature, a team ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory have found evidence to prove why adding a small amount of calcium to a common high-temperature superconductor ...

Scientists have observed an unexpected new behavior in a superconducting material. If physicists can figure out the cause, it could help them to find room-temperature superconductors. When you ...
