Superconductors with a critical temperature above 77 K are called

Correct answer: B. high temp superconductor

  • A. low temp superconductor
  • B. high temp superconductor
  • C. superconductors do not exist above 77 K
  • D. moderate temp superconductor

Explanation

Superconductors with critical temperatures above 77 K are categorized as high-temperature superconductors. These materials can undergo superconductivity at temperatures higher than the boiling point of liquid nitrogen (77 K). Examples include certain ceramic materials like yttrium barium copper oxide (YBCO) and bismuth strontium calcium copper oxide (BSCCO)
