Ultrafast laser helps to better understand high-temperature superconductors

Thursday, May 31, 2012 - 16:41 in Physics & Chemistry

Superconductivity, in which electric current flows without resistance, promises huge energy savings – from low-voltage electric grids with no transmission losses, superefficient motors and generators, and myriad other schemes. But such everyday applications still lie in the future, because conventional superconductivity in metals can't do the job.
