Copper-oxide (CuO2) superconductors, such as Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+ (Bi2212), have unusually high critical temperatures. Optical reflectivity measurements of Bi2212 have shown that it exhibits strong ...

they figured that this coupling would be enhanced in related oxide materials with strong Jahn–Teller distortions to the geometry of the metal–oxygen octahedra. That included copper oxides.

The superconductor in question here is a mix of yttrium, barium, and copper oxide that goes by the merciful acronym YBCO. The easy way to make YBCO involves multiple rounds of pulverizing yttrium ...

Superconductors are materials which conduct electricity without any resistance when cooled down below a critical temperature. These materials have transformative applications in various fields ...
