It’s a problem most of us can relate to. You’re trying to get to bed, but your room is too hot to sleep. No matter what you do, your room is still warmer than the rest of the house. Or perhaps you ...
But the hunt for a superconductor—that is, a material that can conduct electricity without resistance—that can operate at room temperature is nothing new. A Dutch physicist discovered the phenomenon ...
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." The world desperately needs a room-temperature superconductor—a material that exhibits no electrical ...
Hope springs eternal. For decades, there have been claims that researchers have created room-temperature superconductors. The materials promise to conduct an electric current with zero resistance ...
Just when you thought the hype about room-temperature superconductors was over, it’s not. A Swiss quantum algorithm startup, Terra Quantum, and a research lab at the State University of Campinas ...
The news doesn’t go long without some kind of superconductor announcement these days. Unfortunately, these come in several categories: materials that require warmer temperatures than previous ...
