Compressed Nickelate Films Mimic High Pressure to Enable Superconductivity

For many years, researchers believed that superconductors could only exist at very low temperatures, a few degrees above absolute zero (-273 °C). Then, in 1986, researchers discovered that some materials become superconductors at a much higher temperature. These materials contain copper and oxygen and are called cuprates.
