That’s more than 50 degrees hotter than the previous high-temperature superconductivity record set last year. The hydrogen, carbon and sulfur compound operates as a superconductor at up to 59 degrees Fahrenheit, the team reported today in Nature. A team of physicists in New York has discovered a material that conducts electricity with perfect efficiency at room temperature - a long-sought scientific milestone. ![]()
