Superconductors, which allow electrical currents to flow without resistance, hold out exciting possibilities for electronics. That’s because superconducting circuits and devices promise to harness a ...

High-temperature superconductors have emerged as a promising platform for generating coherent terahertz (THz) radiation through the intrinsic Josephson effect. Josephson junctions—formed at the ...

Scientists have shown that a type of qubit whose architecture is more amenable to mass production can perform comparably to qubits currently dominating the field. With a series of mathematical ...

Superconducting diode effect in junction-free superconductors and Josephson junctions wherein supercurrent (paired electrons) flow along one direction while a normal current (unpaired electrons) flow ...

The most obvious advantage of superconductors – materials that offer no electrical resistance to the flow of electrons – in electronic circuits is that they don’t produce any wasteful heating, which ...

There have been reports that South Korean researchers have made a practical regular atmospheric pressure room temperature superconductor using basic lab equipment. This would mean superconducting ...

Separate two superconductors with a thin layer of material and something strange happens. Their superconductivity — a property driven by paired electrons that allows electricity to flow without energy ...

This illustration shows how superconductivity from vanadium (yellow) is transformed at the magnesium oxide barrier (green), enabling iron (blue) to form same-spin electron pairs and participate in ...
