Superconductivity

Meteorites can contain a wide range of material phases due to the extreme environments found in space. They are ideal candidates to...

On its own, a sheet of graphene is a semimetal—its electrons interact only weakly with each other. But as experimentalists discovered in...

A metallic microdevice in which they can define and tune patterns of superconductivity.

The Hubbard model used to understand electron behavior in numerous quantum materials, now shows us its stripes, and superconductivity too, in simulations for cuprate superconductors.

Mott insulators are a class of materials that should conduct electricity under conventional band theories but are insulators when measured (particularly at low temperatures)....

A team of Physicists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames Laboratory and theoreticians at the University of Alabama Birmingham have recently found a strikingly...

Physicists recently claimed to have developed a superconducting material that can operate at near-room temperature. Russell Hemley, a geophysicist at George Washington University in...

A team of scientists at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) recently have confirmed the existence of strange new uranium compounds, and they...

The special properties of 'topological materials' typically occur at their surface. These materials, for instance, insulators that do lead current at their surface, are...

A material is said to show superconductivity when it can convey electric current with essentially zero obstruction. So not at all like the ordinarily...
