It's only a superconductor at milliamps, so we'll need another material for your high energy examples. The biggest deal would be providing a trajectory to materials science.
- hutzlibu 3y agoIf it would be reliable working at milliamps, I am sure it can be put to practical use in my sci fi scenarios eventually (1000 cables with 1 milliamps each should add up to 1 amp?). Of course, unless it all just is a quirky side effect, that can never be put to practical use.

- KiwiJohnno 3y agoRegular YBCO "high temp" superconductor (that needs liquid nitrogen) is also a ceramic.
- hutzlibu 3y agoOnly some applications require flexible cables. All of "my" use cases should be fine with using ceramics. I really don't think this will be the problem ...
- hutzlibu 3y agoIn case I was missunderstood: it won't be the problem to use ceramic, compared to making mass produced room temperatur superconductors. This will be hard either way, if currently no other lab can even reproduce it.
