US researchers at little explored area of quantum geometry to improve performance of superconductors at higher temperatures.
Researchers at the University of Nevada, Reno, have tapped into the relatively unexplored field of quantum geometry to improve the temperature at which two-dimensional superconductors continue to work. The approach will help increase the critical temperature of superconductors, a point at which superconductors stop working. Superconductors have already made it to mainstream modern technology, finding power transmission, medical imaging, and transportation applications.
Below this threshold, though, magnetic fields create normal regions inside the superconductor. Here, paired electrons protect the superconductor from normal regions and create vortices instead, a phenomenon seen in Type II superconductors. In a two-dimensional superconductor, the superfluid density is maintained by two vortices rotating in opposing directions.
