Pressurized materials approach superconductivity at room temperature, for power grids, computers, sensors, communication, and quantum devices


"pressure forces the material's electrons closer together, unlocking extraordinary electronic behaviors... charge-density waves, collective electronic behaviors, typically weaken or disappear under pressure in similar materials, but in this specific material, this behavior not only strengthens under extreme pressure but also emerges at room temperature"
