A proper understanding of the mechanism for cuprate superconductivity can emerge only by comparing materials in which physical parameters vary one at a time. Here we present a variety of bulk, resonance, and scattering measurements on the…
Superconductivity at standard temperature and pressure is far from the extreme conditions where new fundamental laws of physics are expected to arise. Yet it is widely believed that the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson-Fisher paradigm of broken…
Superconductivity has been investigated for over a century, but there are still open questions about what determines the critical current; the maximum current a superconductor can carry before switching to its normal state. For a given…
