For over a century, scientists have sought a holy grail of materials: a room-temperature superconductor, a material that can carry electrical charges without resistance, which would revolutionize the ...

Electricity flows through wires to deliver power, but it loses energy as it moves, delivering less than it started with. But that energy loss isn't a given. Scientists at Penn State have found a new ...

Researchers have discovered two new superconductors using a machine learning-based screening method, demonstrating a ...

Electricity is the lifeblood of modern life, but even the most efficient power lines lose energy along the way. For decades, scientists have searched for materials that could carry electric current ...

Scientists from Ames National Laboratory have identified the first unconventional superconductor with a chemical composition also found in nature. Miassite is one of only four minerals found in nature ...

Two newly discovered superconductors highlight the potential of machine learning to accelerate materials discovery.

A mysterious particle has been discovered inside a superconducting crystal, more than 60 years after it was first predicted. The particle, called Pines’s demon, could explain why some materials ...
