Hyunsung TNC confirms superconducting transition phenomenon at 37°C

Materials research company 'HYUNSUNGTNC' announced that it has confirmed the superconducting transition phenomenon at 37°C (Electronic Times).

Materials research company 'HYUNSUNGTNC' announced that it has confirmed the superconducting transition phenomenon at 37°C. This study is evaluated as a result of experimentally verifying room-temperature superconductivity characteristics in Cd series materials, and is an achievement suggesting the possibility of developing a superconductor that operates at room temperature.

Hyunsung TNC has registered related patents, such as 'Method for Manufacturing Multicomponent Metal Oxides Exhibiting Room-Temperature Superconductivity through Solid-State Chemical Reaction' (Patent No. 10-2359995) in 2022 and 'Method for Depositing Room-Temperature Superconducting Metal Oxides Using Circular Target Laser Ablation' (Patent No. 10-2523480) in 2023, and has continued research based on these.

In particular, the high-purity synthesis technology of over 99% is a proprietary technology owned by Hyunsung TNC, and is evaluated as a method differentiated from existing superconductor synthesis methods. This technology is a key element in improving the performance and stability of superconductors, and is considered an essential element for implementing room-temperature superconductivity.

In this study, it was confirmed that a specific composition of the Cd series exhibited superconducting properties at 37°C, and this was verified through PXRD analysis and magnetic moment (Sweep Mode) experiments. In addition, it was revealed that two new superconducting materials were additionally produced as samples in addition to the TBCO series (0°C) and the YBCO series (-70°C) and are being tested.

Hyunsung TNC has recently expanded its research and development (R&D) facilities and strengthened its experimental and analysis infrastructure, while also focusing on establishing its own theory of room-temperature superconductivity.

Hyunsung TNC plans to expand cooperation with domestic and international research institutes and companies and explore the possibility of commercialization through additional research.
