Nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride- Scientists have made an incredible discovery: superconductivity has been detected in a nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride. The material exhibits a maximum critical superconducting transition temperature of 294 K at 10 kbar, which is equivalent to room temperature and near ambient pressures. These findings have been published in prestigious scientific journal Nature. Superconductivity, the property of certain materials to conduct electricity with zero resistance, … Continue reading Nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride shows evidence of near-ambient superconductivity
