Title: Atomic-Layer Engineering of Cuprate Superconductors (415th Brookhaven Lecture)

Multimedia ·
OSTI ID:1005234

Copper-oxide compounds, called cuprates, show superconducting properties at 163 degrees Kelvin, the highest temperature of any known superconducting material. Cuprates are therefore among the 'high-temperature superconductors' of extreme interest both to scientists and to industry. Research to learn their secrets is one of the hottest topics in the field of materials science.
