High-Temperature Superconductivity [PDF]
Upon cooling metallic conductors, in general their resistance becomes smaller. In 1911, the Dutch physicist H. Kamerlingh Onnes observed that the resistance of mercury disappeared entirely below a temperature of -269?C (1). He had discovered the first superconductor. In the absolute temperature scale, -269?C corresponds to +4.3 degrees K.

A study of superconductivity in single crystals and thin films using muon-spin rotation and neutron scattering [PDF]
The archetypal high temperature superconductor Bi₂Sr₂CaCu₂O[subscript[8+δ]] has been extensively investigated. However, until now, little has been known about the behaviour of the magnetic vortices inside the Vortex Glass and liquid state.

Control of Superconductivity in Cuprate/Manganite Heterostructures [PDF]
Research has shown that the spin alignment in an adjacent ferromagnet is capable of suppressing superconductivity. In this project, devices incorporating cuprate/manganite heterostuctres were successfully fabricated to study the effects of spin ...

Active control of superconductivity by means of the ferromagnetic exchange interaction [PDF]
Recent theoretical studies have suggested that the observed suppression of superconductivity in superconductor/ferromagnet (S/F) heterostructures could be modulated by controlling the ferromagnetic exchange interaction in the superconductor. The exchange
