Indication of Superconductivity at 35 K in Graphite-Sulfur Composites

Superconductivity 2009-11-07 v3

Abstract

We report magnetization measurements performed on graphite--sulfur composites which demonstrate a clear superconducting behavior below the critical temperature Tc0_{c0} = 35 K. The Meissner-Ochsenfeld effect, screening supercurrents, and magnetization hysteresis loops characteristic of type-II superconductors were measured. The results indicate that the superconductivity occurs in a small sample fraction, possibly related to the sample surface.
