Holy Grail of Energy Efficiency: Physicists Advance in Race for Room-Temperature Superconductivity - SciTechDaily

Less than two years ago the science world was shocked by the discovery of a material capable of room-temperature superconductivity. Now, a team of University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) physicists has upped the ante once again by reproducing the feat at the lo…

A team of physicists from UNLVs Nevada Extreme Conditions Lab (NEXCL) used a diamond anvil cell, a research device similar to the one pictured, in their research to lower the pressure needed to obser… [+5333 chars]
