A team of engineers and physicists at Southern University of Science and Technology, in China, has created a nickel-based material that behaves as a superconductor above the -233°C (40 K) threshold ...

It makes nickel just the third class of materials to achieve this feat above the threshold of minus 233 degrees Celsius at ...

When superconductors were discovered in 1911, they astounded researchers with their ability to conduct electricity with no ...

Compounds called nickelates can conduct electricity without resistance well above absolute zero and at ambient pressure.

So-called "infinite-layer" nickelate materials, characterized by their unique crystal and electronic structures, exhibit significant potential as high-temperature superconductors.

MELBOURNE/LONDON, Jan 28 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's threat to impose tariffs on U.S. copper and aluminium imports will result in higher costs for local consumers because of a shortfall ...
