   European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - August 7, 1987, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Page 4 the stars and stripes Friday August 1987 electronics discovery called vital fort Collins Colo. Dpi a scientist says he has isolated a material thai loses All resistance 10 the flow of electricity Al room Imp Calure an Advance in super conductor research that could hasten a new revolution in electronics. If verified and duplicated the finding could make obsolete the new superconductors that stunned the scientific world less than a year , because they can carry electricity indefinitely without weakening the current As it travels could save billions of dollars in Energy costs and make possible such innovations As levitated trains a new generation of supercomputers and powerful medical diagnostic equipment. Colorado state University mechanical engineering professor Walai Abad Sam path said in a statement wednesday that he has been Able to isolate Small regions within a simple of superconducting material that can retain their properties at room temperature or us High As 70 de Grees  said he and co res Carcher. Scan Riley have tested such regions repeatedly since april and found they remained superconductive for at least two other researchers most notably from Japan have reported Zero resistance a room temperature for seven and eight Days in a bulk Sample but they have no been Able to isolate the Clement that is actually superconducting Sampath said. The researchers have started to an Alyze the composition of those tiny re Gions and hopefully now can synthesize those compounds Sampath  room temperature superconductors can be stabilized and produced they would make obsolete the most recent superconducting find ceramics that cannot work unless they Are cooled with liquid nitrogen to 275 degrees below Micro fahrenheit. These ceramics in turn were tremendous Advance beyond superconductors now used that must be cooled to near absolute Zero minus 459.67 de Grees fahrenheit with liquid helium. Sampath said his research May Lead to the manufacture of Large quantities of superconducting materials. Their super conducting material is a Ceramic blend of Copper yttrium barium and other oxides similar to those being studied by scientists around inc  Freeman a physicist from Northwestern University in Chicago andean authority on recent superconductivity advances said he was sceptical but not surprised by the landings.
