Room temperature superconductivity creeping toward possibility

University Park PA (SPX) Aug 03, 2020
The possibility of achieving room temperature superconductivity took a tiny step forward with a recent discovery by a team of Penn State physicists and materials scientists. The surprising discovery involved layering a two-dimensional material called molybdenum sulfide with another material called molybdenum carbide. Molybdenum carbide is a known superconductor - electrons can flow through
