Scientists in Germany are studying a new material that shows promise of being a superconductor of electricity at room temperature, a tech site reported this week.
An article on SciTechDaily.com said the scientists published their findings in the journal Advanced Materials, but cautioned the results are still tentative and need further testing.
“If this is accurate, then there could be huge potential energy savings since superconductors transmit electricity with zero resistance. Until now, the superconductors work at temperatures of about -110 degrees Celsius and lower,” it said.
