A New Way To Look at Superconductivity
MIT Physicists have discovered another possible clue in how different materials achieve superconductivity in certain conditions.
The physicists made their discovery studying iron selenide (FeSe), a two-dimensional material that is the highest-temperature iron-based superconductor. The material is known to switch to a superconducting state at temperatures as high as 70 kelvins (close to -300 degrees Fahrenheit). Though still ultracold, this transition temperature is higher than that of most superconducting materials.
