This picture shows the crystal structure of the superconducting film in this study. The Cooper pairs are shown as balls with paired opposite arrows in it. The Cooper pairing strength is stronger at ...

(Nanowerk News) Superconducting materials are similar to the carpool lane in a congested interstate. Like commuters who ride together, electrons that pair up can bypass the regular traffic, moving ...

MIT researchers observed clear signatures of unconventional superconductivity in magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene (MATTG). The image illustrates pairs of superconducting electrons (yellow spheres ...

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 ...
