    Extractions: Superconducting properties of materials Superconductivity is characterised by the complete loss of electrical resistance below some finite temperature, T c , which is a characteristic of the material used. The phenomenon is rather common: one quarter of the elements become superconducting, as well as several thousand different alloys and compounds. T c values vary from 0K to, at the time of writing, 160K. Above T c superconductors exhibit ohmic conductivity, much as for a normal metal. At and below T c , in the absence of a magnetic field, the low frequency resistivity falls to zero. Superconductivity can be destroyed by the application of a magnetic field which exceeds a critical value H c T ), a decreasing function of temperature T , which reaches zero at T T c The critical fields of superconductors at T = vary widely, having rather low values for pure elemental superconductors (typically 10 mT) but attaining very high values, of order 100 T, for the new high temperature ceramic materials (see below).

    Extractions: var addthis_pub = 'GFYGCMPH6Z132X8G'; Volume I - DC PHYSICS OF CONDUCTORS AND INSULATORS Conductors lose all of their electrical resistance when cooled to super-low temperatures (near absolute zero, about -273 o Celsius). It must be understood that superconductivity is not merely an extrapolation of most conductors' tendency to gradually lose resistance with decreasing temperature; rather, it is a sudden, quantum leap in resistivity from finite to nothing. A superconducting material has absolutely zero electrical resistance, not just some small amount Superconductivity was first discovered by H. Kamerlingh Onnes at the University of Leiden, Netherlands in 1911. Just three years earlier, in 1908, Onnes had developed a method of liquefying helium gas, which provided a medium with which to supercool experimental objects to just a few degrees above absolute zero. Deciding to investigate changes in electrical resistance of mercury when cooled to this low of a temperature, he discovered that its resistance dropped to nothing just below the boiling point of helium.

    Extractions: Received 8 July 1957 A theory of superconductivity is presented, based on the fact that the interaction between electrons resulting from virtual exchange of phonons is attractive when the energy difference between the electrons states involved is less than the phonon energy, ℏω. It is favorable to form a superconducting phase when this attractive interaction dominates the repulsive screened Coulomb interaction. The normal phase is described by the Bloch individual-particle model. The ground state of a superconductor, formed from a linear combination of normal state configurations in which electrons are virtually excited in pairs of opposite spin and momentum, is lower in energy than the normal state by amount proportional to an average (ℏω) , consistent with the isotope effect. A mutually orthogonal set of excited states in one-to-one correspondence with those of the normal phase is obtained by specifying occupation of certain Bloch states and by using the rest to form a linear combination of virtual pair configurations. The theory yields a second-order phase transition and a Meissner effect in the form suggested by Pippard. Calculated values of specific heats and penetration depths and their temperature variation are in good agreement with experiment. There is an energy gap for individual-particle excitations which decreases from about 3.5

    Extractions: Experiments with magnets and conductors Superconductors Superconductivity was first noticed when liquid mercury was cooled to liquid Helium temperatures (4.2K) while its resistivity was being plotted. While approaching that temperature, the resistance was coming down linearly, when all of a sudden it dropped to zero Ohms! Dutch physicist Heike Kamerlingh Onnes was performing this experiment in 1911. Since that time, other elements and combinations of elements have been shown to posses a superconducting state at various temperatures. This table shows the elements which become superconducting and the temperature at which it happens. Most research has been to find materials which are superconducting at higher temperatures. For example, the ceramics in kits you can buy become superconductors at about -186C. Using liquid nitrogen (LN2) which is at -196C, you can make that ceramic superconducting. What is unique about a superconductor? 1. First, its resistance is really zero Ohms, nothing, nada, all gone! This means that if current were flowing in the material, it would produce no heat whatsoever. 2. Second, it will exclude any magnetic fields that come near it, like a magnetic mirror. If a north pole approaches the superconductor, the magnet will behave as though another magnet, just like itself, is approaching from the other side of the surface of the superconductor. At some distance, the magnet's north pole will start to repel the "other magnet's north pole", which is really a reflection of its own. It doesn't matter if it is a north or south pole, it will act the same way. This is the Meissner effect where a magnet will float, or levitate, above a ceramic of superconducting material.

    Extractions: October 3, 2007 When Eric Hudson was introduced to high-temperature superconductivity as a graduate student, it was still, so to speak, a hot topic. The phenomenon, discovered in the 1980s, reflects the fact that if you develop the right types of compounds, you can create electrical conductors that are completely resistance-free at temperatures well above the threshold for conventional superconductors. "With conventional systems, you get to about 25 degrees Kelvin [-415? F] and then plateau," says Hudson, now the Class of 1958 Assistant Professor of Physics at MIT. "With high-temperature superconductivity, you were suddenly at 90 degrees Kelvin." That figure is well above the mark at which nitrogen gas turns liquid. This meant you could create devices like the high-powered electromagnets used in many MRI scanners without having to use costly liquid helium to cool the magnets' coils to superconducting temperatures. (Helium, which liquefies at a hyper-frigid 4 degrees above absolute zero, is a must for conventional superconducting devices.) More exciting yet, the discovery seemed to signal that room-temperature superconductivity was on its way. This triggered claims that problems like electricity line -lossesthe often-hefty amount of power lost to resistance in electrical transmission networkswould soon -disappear.
