Abstract

Composed of organic compounds, Kapton tape is regularly used as a non-conducting and non-magnetic material in cryogenic experiments. Here we report the discovery of Meisser effect at transition temperature (Tc) of ~ 3.8 K and ~ 8.0 K in Kapton tapes. New organic superconducting materials may be further explored in the tapes.
