PtBi2 looks like an ordinary grey crystal, but a new study shows its electrons move in unusual ways not seen in other materials. In 2024 (Nature, "Evidence of superconducting Fermi arcs"), the ...

UPTON, NY--Electrons in a solid occupy distinct energy bands separated by gaps. Energy band gaps are an electronic "no man's land," an energy range where no electrons are allowed. Now, scientists ...

Cornell researchers have developed a one-step 3D printing method to produce superconductors with unprecedented performance. The technique streamlines fabrication and could enhance technologies from ...

Forward-looking: Cornell University scientists have unveiled a new method for producing superconductors, using 3D printing to create materials with record-setting properties. The advance offers a ...
