List of superconductors
The table below shows some of the parameters of common superconductors . X:Y means material X doped with element Y, T C is the highest reported transition temperature in kelvins and H C is a critical magnetic field in tesla . "BCS" means whether or not the superconductivity is explained within the BCS theory .
List
Notes
^ According to,[ 4] superconductivity in Bi is not compatible with conventional BCS theory because the Fermi energy of Bi is comparable to the phonon energy (Debye frequency).
