New materials designed by a University of Illinois Chicago graduate student may help scientists tackle the challenge of building superconductors that operate at normal temperatures and pressures. Superconductors, essential in applications like MRI machines and power transmission, currently require extremely low temperatures to function, limiting their potential. Scientists worldwide are seeking materials that exhibit superconductivity […]
