South Korea Makes Progress Towards Room-Temperature Superconductivity

Researchers at South Korean firm ROOMCON have made a significant breakthrough in superconductivity, challenging conventional expectations about the need for extremely low temperatures to achieve superconductive properties. Professor Kim Yong-jin’s team developed a lead-based composite material that exhibits reduced electrical resistance near room temperature. This discovery could usher in a new era of energy efficiency and technological innovation as it provides evidence of superconducting materials operating at ambient conditions.
