Superconductor survives ultra-high magnetic field

Superconductor survives ultra-high magnetic field Groningen, Netherlands (SPX) Nov 23, 2015 - Physicists from the universities of Groningen and Nijmegen (the Netherlands) and Hong Kong have discovered that transistors made of ultrathin layers molybdeendisulfide (MoS2) are not only superconducting at low temperatures but also stay superconducting in a high magnetic field. This is a unique phenomenon with exciting promises for the future. The experiments were the first to have been p ... more
