As an electrical engineer I’ve followed this topic since 1991 when Dr Paul Chu at the University of Houston was the premier researcher. The trouble with all super conducting “breakthroughs” is making the material into current carrying conductors. They’re made from rare and exotic materials and are fragile to handle. Nobody has been able to do more than make a small sample that levitates a magnet. It’s an interesting topic, but the path to large scale practical applications such as power transmission, in motors, etc where the major losses occur isn’t on the horizon

@@my3dviews I fusion reactor generating more energy than it costs to start/run it has been achieved, it can't be longer than 20 years now.

[@my3dviews]

@@Merrsharr No, not really. The experiment that you are talking about was using 192 lasers to start a fusion reaction. The amount of energy produced (about 3 million joules) was less than the energy input (about 2 million joules), but that was far less than the energy required to run the lasers. In fact it was only about 1% energy output as compared to the amount of energy input to the lasers, because the lasers used about 300 million joules. This was a very small experiment (as far as energy generated) that produced 3 million joules. Only enough energy to boil 10 litres of water starting at room temperature. So, in order for the experiment to actually produce more energy than it uses, it needs to produce over 100 times as much as this experiment did. That also doesn't take into account all the energy to make the lasers and a potential power plant. Even when and if it is achieved it will be incredibly expensive to build a fusion power plant. Thirty years may be too optimistic in fact it may never happen, since power plants from other forms of energy (like fission) are much easier and cheaper to make.

[@shinaji08]

Just to add, I’ve noticed that the research paper used in the video is the paper released by Prof. Kwon, who was left the team 4 months ago. In fact, when Kwon published the paper, he did bot ask the other team members for their consents. Meanwhile, Lee and Kim did majority (99%) of the work and Kwon had very little to none contribution to the research. The same day, the team published a new paper under 6 team members (excluding Kwon). This paper should have more details and datas and they also offered to give a helping hand carrying out the experiment and show other reliable research groups, the actual sample they created, however, after they received the peer review.

This seems a bit different. If you were going to perpetrate such a fraud, you wouldn't make the experiment so easily reproducible. Being skeptical is good but calling a team of researchers fraudulent by saying "We've been here before" without evidence is unscientific and lame.

[@domenicobarillari2046]

The LK-99 stuff you are talking about is essentially a ceramic. Even IF superconducting at high temperatures it would about as useless for practical applications as the cuprate material that "erupted" from the Swiss research labs back in 1987. Such materials CANNOT be fabricated into wires or other practical shapes with any ease - 30 years of materials research have been thrown into making that particular ceramic into something marketable. So far, the penetration of LN2 based superconducting tape into the market is about 1%, as it is just not worth the bother. Besides the engineering issues, which eliminate 90% of the potential applications right away for this sort of RTS, with a few quirky examples, quantum computer devices have no working principle that depends on the superconducting state. That you see cryogenic baths for the experimental quantum computers these day has everything to do with reducing noise, and not using special gate functions. regards, DKB

[@soundsoflife9549]

If vapor deposition of this can be performed, this would be a huge bonus. most superconductors are ceramic though they are not able to be used in this manner. This would open up many opportunities in electronics.

[@domenicobarillari2046]

indeed, on a far more sober note, there are a few advanced applications for which a chip-scale deposition of a superconducting layer would have applications. Certain advanced junction types have the potential to actual be or stand-in for q-bits, but again, the noise factors at room temperature would still prohibit any practical application. Micro-cryo coolers are available for this level of DARPA scale research today, but you can see the irony here.

[@petersilva037]

The other thing missing in the scientific data was the current carrying capacity with just normal cooling, say at 273 K, with just water cooling... the curve already had a huge slope, so even a little cooling might do a lot. Amazing video... the explanations were crystal clear.

[@pentasteve9723]

probably not with just water cooling. You would need something to get it below room temperature. Superconductors don't generate heat since heat comes from resistance so there is no heat being generated to remove.

[@Israel_Two_Bit]

I totally agree. I though the exact same thing when I say the Ic chart. I mean, it does seem to be dropping almost exponentially, so if you look at the graph in reverse, it would grow exponentially with decreasing temperature. The question is, will the material keep superconducting by the same mechanism as temperature drops? Could this be a second, different type of superconductivity that only works at high temperatures?

[@DJ_POOP_IT_OUT_FEAT_LIL_WiiWii]

if true, that would be a tu-quoque fallatio

[@Hackingmonkey908]

@@Israel_Two_Bit most likely not. This superconducter works with the same principles as the other superconductors. The difference is simply that LK99 has the quantum wells prebuilt into the structure. The others are doing the same thing they just require exceptional conditions to maintain that structure. Once it leaves those conditions, it doesn't have quantum wells to enable superconductivity. Since they are prebuilt into lk99's structure, it can work at high temperatures.

[@Israel_Two_Bit]

@@Hackingmonkey908 That much we know so far. But what happens at lower temperatures is what we're discussing. I wonder if those quantum wells would then break up if the structure gets too compressed??

[@goldenealgefromdutchbros6834]

Superconductivity is a phenomenon occurring in certain materials generally at very low temperatures, characterized by exactly zero electrical resistance and the exclusion of the interior magnetic field (the Meissner effect). It was discovered by Heike Kamerlingh Onnes in 1911. Like ferromagnetism and atomic spectral lines, superconductivity is a quantum mechanical phenomenon. It cannot be understood simply as the idealization of "perfect conductivity" in classical physics. The electrical resistivity of a metallic conductor decreases gradually as the temperature is lowered. However, in ordinary conductors such as copper and silver, impurities and other defects impose a lower limit. Even near absolute zero a real sample of copper shows a non-zero resistance. The resistance of a superconductor, despite these imperfections, drops abruptly to zero when the material is cooled below its "critical temperature". An electric current flowing in a loop of superconducting wire can persist indefinitely with no power source. Superconductivity occurs in a wide variety of materials, including simple elements like tin and aluminium, various metallic alloys and some heavily-doped semiconductors. Superconductivity does not occur in noble metals like gold and silver, nor in pure samples of ferromagnetic metals. In 1986 the discovery of a family of cuprate-perovskite ceramic materials known as high-temperature superconductors, with critical temperatures in excess of 90 kelvin, spurred renewed interest and research in superconductivity for several reasons. As a topic of pure research, these materials represented a new phenomenon not explained by the current theory. In addition, because the superconducting state persists up to more manageable temperatures, past the economically-important boiling point of liquid nitrogen (77 kelvin), more commercial applications are feasible, especially if materials with even higher critical temperatures could be discovered. See also the history of superconductivity.

If I'm thinking about the same example, the two that made the discovery didn't rush to say it was a definite, sure thing. They wanted more testing to confirm their findings (which is *precisely* how science works) and were open with their process. Sure, they hoped it would be proven out, and were disappointed that it didn't end up panning out as they had hoped, but that's how science is supposed to be. Not every experiment is reproducible; sometimes, its some novel effect from unaccounted variables and you just don't know how or why it happened. It was the big buzz *around* the discovery that was the problem. News took the story and ran with it as if "cold fusion" power was already invented and confirmed. Then, after science did its thing amd said, "oh, no, false alarm, nothing to see here," the story flipped to, "oh, no, it was a scam, these guys faked their results." Not every failed experiment is a result of deliberate deception.

At my age I thought that I would never see this happen. Your latest video and explanation make my heart pound. It would be wonderful to see this happen in the next 20 years.

[@bandulaamarawardena6576]

I am in the same boat... But... Let me put it very briefly. An electric motor loses about, say, 20 per cent of the input, and delivers, say, 80 per cent output. All a superconductor can do is to prevent the 20 per cent losses. I am on the fantasy side, if the idea is to get energy for nothing..!!

[@kodypierce3507]

Man I grow crystals for living, this really hit home. I also spent my younger years learning electronics. Electricity, conductors etc... I think they are missing one component to make this work, but it might just be how they manipulate the crystal to form, especially if it's molucules that are subject to polymorphism.

[@ipp_tutor]

I work in the field of crystallography as well and I read both papers. It seems they took a powder Xrd pattern of the end product and it was mostly made of apatite from what I can tell. That seems to align with what at least one Japanese group is getting: a superconductive phase but very impure and not pure enough to exhibit the Meissner effect. What’s strange is that they seem to suggest that lk99 has the same basic structure and space group as the original apatite, only with slightly lower cell parameters. I’m wondering what their FOM for the structural determination were. They don’t say.

[@histreeonics7770]

It has been 5 days and none of your top 30 or so commenters have noted that the video of the broken disk 'floating' on the magnet is a sign of diamagnetism, not superconductivity. If it were superconducting it would not be touching at a point. The arguments I have heard about purity or uniformity seem strained when you know even a little bit about the processes used to make the disk. The scientists were delinquent in not testing for diamagnetism before publishing. Before making a claim of superconduction they should have rigorously established that no other known phenomenon could generate the data. This is much like the Pons-Fleischmann incident.

[@tylershepard4269]

I hope people try to recreate these results soon. It would be game changing for my field, I work in microwave integrated circuits and having lossless interconnects would be a game changer. Especially as we approach THz frequencies. I would imagine that once the superconductor is replicated, it will quickly find its way into integrated circuit processes.

@@alexanderkuhn2298 I've worked on lower frequency radios (VHF and UHF) and GHz range of microwave, it's been my experience that the lower frequency bands do not have the range of the higher, but the higher frequencies do not deal with obstructions as well as the lower frequencies do.

[@cosmicyoke]

The thing with superconductors that I hardly see people mention though is that they have (practically) 0 *DC* resistance, while for AC signals they still have a reactive component due to capacitive and inductive inertia, which are forms of losses though superconductivity def would reduce the AC losses and could even sustain LC oscillations for a much longer time given the extremely high Q-Factor.

[@mmarissa95]

Interesting 🤔… Can you explain more on the capacitive and inductive inertia ? And how they are reactive with AC and not DC ?

[@qrzone8167]

@@mmarissa95 Have you heard of "Leading/Lagging" in AC circuits? That is what they mean by "Inertia." Inductive circuits store potential energy within a magnetic field and this magnetic field takes time to collapse before it can induce CEMF which causes current to lag by 90 degrees. Capacitors need time to charge/discharge and do the opposite of inductors, they lead by 90 degrees. This is all because AC is always rapidly changing the direction of electron flow. DC is much more straightforward, current flows one way, and simply doesn't cause reactive components that are apparent in AC.} If you want to dig a little deeper you'll need to learn why a collapsing magnetic field causes lagging current, and why charging/discharging capacitors causes leading current. Plenty of great videos out there on this concept because it is fundamental to understand this when working with AC electricity.

[@cosmicyoke]

@@mmarissa95 the concept is impedance, which involves both ohmic resistance and reactance, reactance is inertia against AC, it has a capacitive component which reduces with increasing frequency, and the inductive component reduces with decreasing frequency. The reason it happens with AC is because AC signals are constantly changing magnitude and direction, alternating. DC normally doesnt experience this, except in cases where there are DC transients, such as Pulsed DC, or when an inductor or capacitor 'charges' and 'discharges'. Any conductive wire apart from the resistive properties can also be modeled as having capacitive and inductive qualities, which they do, and when you have AC signals this cannot always be ignored, especially with increasing frequency.

And thats why he concludes that copper is closer to nichrome than to a superconductor in resistivity, but that is completly wrong. If you keep the same unit of measurement (resistivity of the superconductor) then nichrome has 66x168.000 times more resistivity than the SC and copper only 168.000 times more. So on a linear measuring stick copper is 66 times closer to the superconductor than to nichrome. He is just trying to make things more dramatic for his youtube video but its not helpful to confuse units and peoples intuition for things like that...
