'Incoherent excitations' govern key phase of superconductor behavior

Thursday, October 14, 2010 - 13:30 in Physics & Chemistry

New research by University of British Columbia physicists indicates that high-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides is linked to what they term 'incoherent excitations'--a discovery that sheds light on the electronic response of these materials before they become superconducting.
