The discovery of high temperature superconductors HTS
with critical temperatures Tc above the liquid
Nitrogen boiling temperature 77K, stimulated the
scientific community. Four families of HTS were
discovered. These are Yttrium, Bismuth, Thallium, and
Mercury based superconductors. Despite the extensive
research carried out after that, practical
applications faced limitations. One of the
limitations is the fact that the maximum Tc is still
far below room temperature. Various
chemical-processing methods can be used in hope to
overcome the first problem. In this book, doping with
Boron and...
