Condensed-matter physics: Dual realities in superconductors
Tetsuo Hanaguri1
Abstract
In some copper oxides, superconductivity emerges when fixed electrons become mobile. A microscopy technique reveals that this process is associated with the transfer of electrons between real and abstract spaces.
Superconductivity is a dramatic phenomenon in which a material loses all resistance to electric currents. Although the concept is simple, the electronic states that underlie superconductivity are complex, and provide a rich area for research.
