Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity with zero resistance when cooled to a certain temperature, called the critical temperature. They have applications in many fields, including ...

Superconductors promise loss-free electricity, but most only work at extreme cold. Hydrogen-rich materials changed that—yet their inner workings remained hidden because they only exist under enormous ...

Physicists in China report the creation of a new nickel-based high-temperature superconductor at room pressure. The South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported that this development comes from ...

A shiny gray crystal called platinum-bismuth-two hides an electronic world unlike anything scientists have seen before.
