The search for high‐temperature superconductors

Bernd T. Matthias
OpenURL
Show Topic
Although superconductivity at room temperature will always remain a pipedream, temperatures as high as 25–30 K are a realistic possibility and will trigger a technological revolution.

Electronics with superconducting junctions

John Clarke
OpenURL
Show Topic
As ultracold becomes easier to maintain, highly sensitive devices based on the Josephson effects may find wider and wider use to measure tiny high‐frequency voltages and magnetic fields.

Quantum nature of superfluid helium

Seth J. Putterman and Isadore Rudnick
OpenURL
Show Topic
The macroscopic behavior that we describe as “superfluidity” is traceable to the microscopic, quantum‐mechanical properties of liquid helium.

Superconducting magnets

John K. Hulm, Don J. Kasun, and Edward Mullan
OpenURL
Show Topic
Stable, reliable and homogeneous fields in the 50–100 kilogauss range are now readily available, thanks to a decade of development on superconducting materials and methods.
