At what temperature does something become a superconductor?
Question asked by: mrquestion
Asked on: 25 Jan 2010
It depends on what the material is that is being used for the superconductor.
However for anything to superconduct (of the so-far known superconductors) the temperature has to be very low indeed and close to absolute zero.
Infact anything that is 40 or more degrees kelvin above absolute value is phrased as something like a "relatively warm" superconductor so that just goes to show how cold most things need to be to superconduct.
