Sudden transition In amorphous indium oxide thin film superconductors could shift quantum technology into high gear
"superconductors with increasing disorder undergo abrupt first-order quantum phase transitions to insulating, sharp drop in superfluid stiffness (not electron pairing strength, consistent with pseudogap regime of preformed) at critical disorder (temperature)... improve stability/ performance of superconducting circuits/ superinductors... future: better understanding of role of repulsive interactions between Cooper pairs and emergence of localized Cooper-pair glass—a state where electron pairs are immobilized"
