What May Be The Dawn Of Practical Superconductivity

March 9, 2023 | Leave a Comment

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… University of Rochester researchers have created a superconducting material at both a temperature and pressure low enough for practical applications. This is certainly a historical achievement for superconductivity. In a paper published in Nature, the researchers describe a nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride (NDLH) that exhibits superconductivity at 69° Fahrenheit and 10 kilobars (145,000 pounds per […]

Room Temperature Superconductor Found

October 22, 2020 | 2 Comments

University of Rochester engineers and physicists have created a material that is superconducting at room temperature. The carbonaceous sulfur hydride exhibited superconductivity at about 58 degrees Fahrenheit and a pressure of about 39 million psi. This is the first time that superconducting material has been observed at room temperatures. Featured as the cover story in […]
