Ask Hackaday: What If You Did Have a Room Temperature Superconductor?

The news doesn’t go long without some kind of superconductor announcement these days. Unfortunately, these come in several categories: materials that require warmer temperatures than previous materials but still require …read more Continue reading Ask Hackaday: What If You Did Have a Room Temperature Superconductor?

Evidence For Graphite As A Room Temperature Superconductor

Little has to be said about why superconducting materials are so tantalizing, or what the benefits of an ambient pressure, room temperature material with superconducting properties would be. The main …read more Continue reading Evidence For Graphite As A Room Temperature Superconductor

Another Room-Temperature Superconductivity Claim and Questions of Scientific Integrity

In early March of 2023, a paper was published in Nature, with the researchers claiming that they had observed superconductivity at room temperature in a conductive alloy, at near-ambient pressure. …read more Continue reading Another Room-Temperature Superconductivity Claim and Questions of Scientific Integrity

Room Temperature Superconductor? Yes, but not so Fast…

There’s good news and there’s bad news in what we’re about to tell you. The good news is that a team of physicists has found a blend of hydrogen, carbon, and sulfur that exhibit superconductivity at 59F. Exciting, right? The bad news is that it only works when being crushed …read more
