A research team led by Prof. Liu Xiaodi from the Hefei Institute of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with researchers from Jilin University and Sun Yat-sen University, has ...

With copper-substituted lead apatite below room temperature, Chinese researchers observe diamagnetic dc magnetization under magnetic field of 25 Oe with remarkable bifurcation between ...

Copper-substituted lead apatite, aka LK-99, was claimed to be room-temperature superconductor, but due to the complicated components and structures, the reproduction is still controversial. Chinese ...

A research team has directly observed the Meissner effect in two-dimensional superconductors using a new high-sensitivity magnetometry method. The Meissner effect is the way a superconductor expels ...

Superconductivity is a fascinating phenomenon, which allows a material to sustain an electrical current without any loss. This collective quantum behavior of matter only appears in certain conductors ...
