New Possibilities Found for Room-Temperature Superconductivity

Condensed Matter, Physics, Science /

Room-temperature superconductivity Researchers find that triggering superconductivity with a flash of light requires the same fundamental physics at work in the more stable states needed for devices, opening up a new path toward creating room-temperature superconductivity. Researchers can learn more about a system by jolting it into a somewhat unstable state– scientists call this “out
