Alex Kaplan @alexkaplan0 Jul 25 3. Nuclear fusion reactors rely on superconductors for plasma confinement. Modern designs use RBCO/YBCO superconductors cooled with LN2 or Liquid He, creating a huge temperature gradient and challenging operation. Ambient superconductors enable a whole host of new reactor designs 19 32 1336 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano · Jul 25 4. Quantum computers use superconductors to preserve coherence in qubits. Small changes in temperature and pressure can cause the entire QC to fail during operation. Imagine a room temperature quantum computer on your desktop - now possible. 481 8,257 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplan0 Jul 25 31 Alex Kaplan @alexkaplano 7,945 . 402 5. Superconductors might be the best batteries out there. Simply inject a current and keep it in the coil until you need it. Previously, too costly to maintain. Now, totally feasible. 1.5M 7,935 1.4M 1.3M ... 6. Your iPhone won't overheat when playing subway surfer with a youtube video in the corner anymore! Ultra-efficient computer chips will have O resistive losses during operation with superconductors. No need for cooling fans!! 11:35 PM . Jul 25, 2023 1.3M Views

$Andrew Cote @Andercot National Lab (LBNL) results support LK-99 as a room-temperature ambient-pressure superconductor. Simulations published 1 hour ago on arxiv support LK-99 as the holy grail of modern material science and applied physics. (arxiv.org/abs/2307.16892) Here's the plain-english explanation: - The simulations modeled what the original Korean authors proposed was happening to their material - where copper atoms were percolating into a crystal structure and replacing lead atoms, causing the crystal to strain slightly and contract by 0.5%. This unique structure was proposed to allow this amazing property. - @sineatrix from Lawrence Berkeley National Lab simulated this using heavy-duty compute power from the Department of Energy, and looked to see what would happen to the 'electronic structure of this material, meaning, what are the available conduction pathways in the material. It turns out that there are conduction pathways for electrons that are in just the right conditions and places that would enable them to 'superconduct'. More specifically, they were close to the 'Fermi Surface' which is like the sea-level of electrical energy, as in '0 ft above sea-level.' It's believed currently that the more conduction pathways close to the Fermi surface, the higher the temperature you can superconduct at (An analogy might be how its easier for planes to fly close to the surface of the ocean due to the 'ground effect' that gives them more lift.) 0.1 EIDU 「 A LH A|LM|K H Energy (eV) 0.0 -0.1 -0.2 -0.3+ -0.4. MK FIG. 4. Calculated spin-polarized electronic band structur in smaller energy range around the Fermi level showing th isolated two-band Cu-d manifold. The Fermi level is set to ( eV and is marked by the dashed line. This plot in particular shows the 'bands', or electron pathways, crossing above and below the Fermi surface. - Lastly, these interesting conduction pathways only form when the copper atom percolates into the less likely location in the crystal lattice, or the 'higher energy' binding site. This means the material would be difficult to synthesize since only a small fraction of crystal gets its copper in just the right location. This is insanely bullish for humanity.$

davidad @davidad A condensed matter physicist at LBNL used some DoE supercomputer to do ab initio quantum chemistry simulation of LK-99 to see if there's any plausible mechanism for superconductivity, and there totally is: an isolated pair of Cu-dº bands that are nearly flat at the Fermi level.

Packy McCormick @packyM • Jan 3 The great thing about the Room Temperature Superconductor thing is that at worst, it's fun like sports are fun, and at best, it's fun like the Industrial Revolution was fun. 25 436 6.2K ₁210K 口企
