Entering the Nickel Age of Superconductivity
M. R. Norman
Abstract
After a 30-year quest, researchers found a nickel-based analog of copper oxide superconductors. The discovery motivates the search for other nickelates and should provide new insights into the origin of high-temperature superconductivity.
