"Unlocking Superconductivity: Exploring Field-Induced Phenomena in Quantum Materials"
Scientists have demonstrated field-induced superconductivity in quantum materials by applying stress as a switch between a field tunable superconducting state and a non-field tunable state. The team used X-ray diffraction and spectroscopy measurements under stress to propose a new mechanism called the dipolar fold as the origin of field-induced superconductivity. The study provides insights into the tunability of superconductivity through strain and magnetic field, opening up possibilities for applications in superconducting spintronics.
