Cavity-enhanced superconducting response in an underdoped cuprate

Angela Montanaro, Vadim Plastovets, Nitesh Khatiwada +15

Superconductors carry electrical current without resistance when paired electrons condense into a coherent macroscopic quantum state. In underdoped cuprates, evidence suggests that…
