High-Temperature Superconductivity

High-temperature superconductivity is a phenomenon where certain materials conduct electricity without resistance at relatively higher temperatures than traditional superconductors, often above the boiling point of liquid nitrogen (-196°C). In these materials, electrons pair up and move smoothly through the crystal lattice, eliminating energy loss. Understanding exactly how this occurs remains an active area of research, but these materials hold promise for more efficient power transmission, powerful electromagnets, and advanced electronic devices, potentially revolutionizing multiple industries.
