John Bardeen was the thinker ... to tackle his next set of hypotheses (he would win a second Nobel for his superconductivity theories); Shockley the visionary to launch an entire new semiconductor ...

John Bardeen left Bell Labs for the University of Illinois, and later won a second Nobel Prize—the only scientist ever to win two prizes in physics—for his work in superconductivity.

On the morning of Thursday, November 1, 1956, John Bardeen was making breakfast and listening to the radio. As he scrambled his eggs, he heard a newscaster announce that the Nobel Prize in physics had ...

When MoTe 2 becomes superconducting, the supercurrent (the maximum current that can be injected without destroying superconductivity) oscillates in a magnetic field. The edge supercurrent ...

Moreover, there is compelling evidence that superconductivity in the range ... James Bray and John Bardeen in the United States. These concepts stimulated a number of efforts to realize and ...

Researchers have just observed unexpected pairs of electrons within them. The findings challenge what we thought we knew about the temperature required for superconductivity. A discovery that could ...

A superconductivity theory proposed by a Würzburg physics team has been validated in an international experiment that showed Cooper pairs display wave-like distribution in Kagome metals.

When MoTe2 becomes superconducting, the supercurrent (the maximum current that can be injected without destroying superconductivity) oscillates in a magnetic field. The edge supercurrent oscillates ...

Superconductivity, on the other hand ... That’s because the major theory that explains superconductors, called Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer Theory (BCS), relies on special electron pairs held ...

John Werner has created a career out of bringing ideas, networks and people together to generate powerful results. John is a Managing Director and Partner at Link Ventures. John's deep curiosity ...

John Bardeen had met William Shockley when they were both in school in Massachusetts. In 1945, when World War 2 ended, Shockley was put in charge of a new research group at Bell Labs and he wanted ...
