High-temperature superconductivity - Wikipedia
2019-6-28 · High-temperature superconductors (abbreviated high-T c or HTS) are materials that behave as superconductors at unusually high temperatures. The first high-T c superconductor was discovered in 1986 by IBM researchers Georg Bednorz and K. Alex Müller, who were awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize in Physics "for their important break-through in the discovery of superconductivity in ceramic materials".
