If quantum computing is going to become an every-day reality, we need better superconducting thin films, the hardware that enables storage and processing of quantum information. Too often, these thin ...

Researchers believe they can fit 25 million Josephson junctions — a useful component for quantum computing — on one two-inch wafer with this approach. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Highly precise spectroscopy exposes a sixth-order nodal gap on PtBi 2 ’s Fermi arcs, confirming a long theorized topological superconducting phase. Study: Topological nodal i-wave superconductivity in ...

At low enough temperatures, certain metals lose their electrical resistance and they conduct electricity without loss. This effect of superconductivity is known for more than hundred years and is well ...

Crystal structure In the new high-Tc superconductor, lanthanum and scandium atoms constitute the MgB 2-type sublattice, while the surrounding hydrogen atoms form two types of cage-like configurations.

Findings could open route to new forms of higher-temperature superconductors. (Nanowerk News) Superconductors are like the express trains in a metro system. Any electricity that “boards” a ...

Researchers at the quantum computing firm Quantinuum used a new Helios-1 quantum computer to simulate a mathematical model that has long been used to study superconductivity. These simulations are not ...

Superconductors (materials that conduct electricity without resistance) have fascinated physicists for more than a century. While conventional superconductors are well understood, a new class of ...

Rice's Andriy Nevidomskyy is part of a team that has mapped and explained a puzzling form of superconductivity that arises only under strong magnetic fields. Traditionally, scientists have regarded ...

A proposed experiment that would involve trapping atoms on a two-layered laser grid could be used to study the mechanism behind high-temperature superconductivity. Developed by physicists in Germany ...

Antonia Haynes is a Game Rant writer who resides in a small seaside town in England where she has lived her whole life. Beginning her video game writing career in 2014, and having an avid love of ...

Why do cold thin sheets of carbon offer no resistance to electric currents? Two experiments are bringing us closer to an answer – and maybe even to practical room-temperature superconductors. Kin ...
