Gold and silver nanostructures claimed to have room temperature superconductivity | NextBigFuture.com

Arxiv – Evidence for Superconductivity at Ambient Temperature and Pressure in Nanostructures Despite being a low temperature phenomenon till date, superconductivity has found numerous applications in diverse fields of medicine, science and engineering. The great scientific interest in the phenomenon as well as its practical utility has motivated extensive efforts to discover and understand new superconductors. We report the observation of superconductivity at ambient temperature and pressure conditions in films and pellets of a nanostructured material that is composed of silver particles embedded into a gold matrix. Specifically, we observe that upon cooling below 236 K at ambient pressures, the
