Researchers achieve interdimensional superconductivity

Jul 19, 2023 (Nanowerk News) In the typical materials that we encounter every day—and even in state-of-the-art chips in computers—electrons move around in three dimensions (3D). However, scientists can force electrons to move around in two dimensions (2D) by creating ultra-thin materials like graphene. In this work, published in PNAS...
