Abstract |
|
Superconductivity is a phenomenon of disappearance of electrical resistance below certain temperature. The phenomenon was discovered by Kammerling Onnes in 1911 in metallic mercury at 4K. Since then, quest is on to find materials which show the superconductivity phenomenon at higher temperatures. Earlier, some compounds called Cuprates were believed to show the High Temperature Superconductivity. But now certain compounds of iron are also believed to show superconductivity at higher transition temperatures. In this article, we briefly review the theory of high temperature superconductivity and some technological applications of High Temperature Superconductors. |
