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 ...

The last week of July heralded not one but two scientific breakthroughs that have left the academic community abuzz and may bring us one step closer to the holy grail of fusion energy. Nuclear fusion ...

Last month, a team of researchers claimed they’d essentially found the holy grail in the field of physics: a superconductor that can operate at ambient pressures and room temperatures. That’s a huge ...

BEST will deliver high-performance superconductors engineered to meet advanced MRI magnet requirements for quality and ...

While superconductors are known to induce weak superconducting behavior in nearby materials, the iron's induced behavior was strong enough to produce Josephson junction-like synchronization between it ...

For over a century, scientists have sought a holy grail of materials: a room-temperature superconductor, a material that can carry electrical charges without resistance, which would revolutionize the ...

"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 ...

A superconductor is a material that takes on some really exotic properties. When the right conditions are reached, all electrical resistance in the material suddenly vanishes and it generates a ...

Researchers at South Korea’s Quantum Energy Research Centre made a huge splash when they announced a few weeks back that they’d accomplished a potentially groundbreaking first: a “room-temperature ...

Recent studies have revealed that electrons passing through chiral molecules exhibit significant spin polarization—a phenomenon known as chirality-induced spin selectivity. This effect stems from a ...
