Superconductivity: Is kinky conventional?
Philip B. Allen
Abstract
An explanation for superconductivity in high-temperature, or 'unconventional', materials remains elusive. New experiments may indicate a surprising similarity to their low-temperature counterparts.
Copper oxides are still by a factor of three the highest-temperature superconductors around. Superconductivity requires the binding of electrons in pairs, but the binding force in these 'unconventional' materials remains unknown.
