scotch tape also allows you to look through frosted glass if placed on the frosted side...Superpower!!!
These guys hypothesise that the water dopes the graphite surface with hydrogen and this plays some role in linking the grains together. This, they say, explains the superconductivity and why pressing grain breaks the bonds between them. [...] it's hard to imagine that superconducting grains will be of much use in the long term so physicists will want to find a way of reproducing the effect in a bulk material--along a wire, for example.
So there's plenty of work ahead. [...] the implications and rewards are potentially huge, which adds a modicum of extra incentive.
Esquinazi and co are clearly aware of this. They finish their paper like this: "The overall results indicate that room temperature superconductivity appears to be reachable and that the here used or similar methods may pave the way for a new generation of superconducting devices with unexpected benefits for society."
The official name for the tape according to the US Navy is HP Tape. HP for high pressure. 10 psi rated.DeltaV wrote:Duct tape is The Way.
