New research sharpens understanding of the hidden symmetry in a mysterious superconductor. Superconductors are materials that ...

For three decades, one quiet crystal has sat at the center of a fierce argument about how exotic superconductors really work.

Remarkably, these experiments revealed that molybdenum ditelluride can exhibit superconductivity and magnetism at the same ...

Superconductivity was discovered around a century ago in mercury that had been cooled to nearly absolute zero 2. A large number of metals and their alloys display superconductivity when cooled to a ...

A UB-led experiment confirms that ferromagent iron found a way to sync with the superconducting metal vanadium.

For decades, a family of crystals has stumped physicists with its baffling ability to superconduct—that is, carry an electric current without any resistance—at far warmer temperatures than other ...

Superconductors (materials that conduct electricity without resistance) have fascinated physicists for more than a century. While conventional superconductors are well understood, a new class of ...

University of Rochester physicist Ranga Dias, who made international headlines in the scientific community several years ago with purported breakthroughs related to room-temperature superconductivity, ...

Room-temperature superconductivity would be a massive scientific breakthrough, allowing for advances like efficient power grids that can transmit electricity without losses, high-speed, ...

David D. Nolte receives funding from the National Science Foundation. On April 8, 1911, Dutch physicist Heike Kamerlingh Onnes scribbled in pencil an almost unintelligible note into a kitchen notebook ...
