Rare Type of Superconductivity Observed in Magic-Angle Twisted Trilayer Graphene

( Massachusetts Institute of Technology ) MIT physicists have observed signs of a rare type of superconductivity in a material called "magic-angle" twisted trilayer graphene. They report that the material exhibits superconductivity at surprisingly high magnetic fields of up to 10 Tesla, which is three times higher than what the material is predicted to endure if it were a conventional superconductor.
