Up Stanford University researchers Are using a new High temperature super conduction technique to create thin films of atoms thai May have a variety of uses in the electronics Industry a Stanford team led by Theodore h. Geballe of the department of applied physics has announced thai it has made superconducting films just 1,000 to 2,000 atoms thick by condensing a vapor of Lanthanum strontium Copper oxide onto a Flat surface. Two electronic devices called Point Contact and conventional Sandwich Type Tunnel junctions also were produced by the researchers with the vapor and with yttrium barium Copper Oji Ide. The researchers were surprised to find much larger Energy gaps in these materials than cd , Geballe said. These gaps Are 10 or More times higher than those in present superconducting integrated circuits. Superconducting materials transmit electricity with very i talc resistance.
