We propose a new mixed-mechanism for superconductors, which addresses not only low- but also high-, and even possible room-temperature superconductivity. We use this mixed-mechanism to explain superconductivity in different temperature…
Superconductivity in some metals at low temperature is known to arise from an electron-phonon coupling mechanism. Such the mechanism enables an effective attraction to bind two mobile electrons together, and even form a kind of pairing…

The quasiparticles in the normal state of cuprate superconductors have been shown to behave universally as a 3-dimensional Fermi liquid. Because of interactions and the presence of the Fermi surfaces (or Fermi energies), the quasiparticle…
We deal with a model for high-temperature superconductivity which maintains that in cuprates electrons running in the copper oxide layers, found in lattice of these materials, form spin-singlet bonds with electrons running in the…

Kondo effect arises whenever a coupling to the Fermi gas induces transitions within the otherwise degenerate ground state multiplet of an interacting system. Both coupling to the Fermi gas and interactions are naturally present in any…
