High-temperature superconductors: Some vortices like it hot
Patrick A. Lee
The discovery of high-temperature superconductivity, in a family of compounds containing copper–oxygen layers1, triggered intense research into these copper oxides. It has become increasingly clear that the high-temperature superconductors are not just conventional superconductors with a higher superconducting-transition temperature, Tc — the point at which electrons pair up and begin to flow without resistance — but are fundamentally different beasts.
