Introduction to the physics of high-Tc superconductivity

Superconductivity was discovered in 1911 in elemental metals by K. Onnes. Until the 1980s, physicists believed that the Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) theory — which describes most of the physics of conventional superconductivity — barred superconductivity at temperatures greater than 30 K. In 1986, physicists G. Bednorz and A.
