Potential of iron-based superconductors (IBS) in future applications

Abstract

Due to the expansion of research studies in the family of new superconductors, there is a progress in the investigations of basic physical and chemical properties. The new findings certainly ended the cuprate monopoly in high temperature superconductor (HTSC) family with the introduction of iron based chemical structures. The possessed high values of superconductor temperatures (TC) in iron-based superconductors (IBS) provide hints of novel approaches to futuristic applications while deepening the knowledge of high temperature superconductivity. Up-to-date, many theoretical and practical methods are being utilized to investigate new IBS.
