Mapping the electronic states in an exotic superconductor
E-Mail IMAGE: (Left) Through neutron scattering experiments, scientists observed distinct patterns of magnetic correlations in superconducting ( "single-stripe magnetism ") and nonsuperconducting ( "double-stripe magnetism ") samples of a compound containing iron (Fe), tellurium (Te), and... view more Credit: Brookhaven National Laboratory UPTON, NY--Scientists characterized how the electronic states in a compound containing iron, tellurium, and selenium depend on local chemical concentrations. They discovered that superconductivity (conducting electricity without resistance), alo...
