Boston College physicists have discovered a complex landscape of electronic states that can co-exist on a kagome lattice, resembling those in high-temperature superconductors, they reported this fall ...

Here, the authors investigate the SDE in the chiral type-I superconductor, NbGe 2, showing that the vortex dynamics play a significant role in the observed transport properties.

Conventional superconductors, which are well understood, work at temperatures typically close to absolute zero. In these ...

Bismuth-based superconductors, particularly those in ... Additionally, researchers have explored the effects of lattice anharmonicity on superconductivity. The Grüneisen parameter, which measures ...

In normal conductors, electrons flow across an ionic lattice. Some electrons collide with the ions, converting some of their energy to heat. In a superconductor, the electrons bind in weak pairs ...

This image shows the positions of atoms (blue spheres) that make up the crystal lattice of a copper-oxide superconductor, superimposed on a map of electronic charge distribution (yellow is high ...
