Researchers at Zhejiang University and Sun Yat-Sen University have gathered evidence of high-temperature superconductivity with zero resistance and strange metal behavior in a material identified in their previous studies.
Their findings, published in Nature Physics, highlight the promise of this material to study these rare physical properties and ultimately leverage them to develop innovative electronic devices.
"High-temperature superconductivity is one of the most intriguing puzzles in the field of condensed matter physics," Prof Huiqiu Yuan, the project leader for this work, told Phys.org.
"It holds the potential to revolutionize technology by enabling the creation of superconducting electronics cooled by liquid nitrogen (above -195.8 °C or 77.4 K). Consequently, the pursuit of superconductors with high transition temperatures and the understanding of their mechanisms are among the most compelling objectives in condensed matter physics."
