Researchers in China have demonstrated the first high-temperature superconducting diode, operating above liquid nitrogen temperatures without magnetic fields. Using cuprate materials, the device enables clean supercurrent flow and could reduce noise in quantum computers. The breakthrough marks an important step toward practical superconducting electronics and more sta…Researchers in China have demonstrated the first high-temperature superconducting diode, operating above liquid nitrogen temperatures without magnetic fields.
