Tokyo Institute of Technology discovers potential control over superconductivity

Schematic illustration of the pseudo-Li-ion battery structure. The anode and cathode materials are LiTi2O4 film and LiCoO2/Al, respectively. The Li-ion electrochemical reactions and resistivity measurements are independently performed by using electric circuits, drawn by at the side and bottom of the cell, respectively

An applied potential can reversibly induce a superconducting-insulator transition in lithium titanate thin films, report researchers at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. “Controlling such exotic properties by applying an external field is one of the biggest continuous challenges in condensed matter physics,” st
