"Atomic-Layer Engineering of Cuprate Superconductors." Copper-oxide compounds, called cuprates, show superconducting properties at 163 degrees Kelvin, the highest temperature of any known superconducting material. Cuprates are therefore among the “high-temperature superconductors” of extreme interest both to scientists and to industry. Research to learn their secrets is one of the hottest topics in the field of materials science. May 17, 2006
