Can electricity flow with no resistance at room temperature?How close are we to room-temperature superconductors?

Superconductivity near room temperature has only been credibly observed under megabar pressures; every ambient-pressure room-temperature claim has failed replication or been retracted.Materials squeezed to crushing pressures lose resistance when nearly warm, but nothing verified works in an ordinary room - and the loudest recent claims turned out to be wrong.

Technical note 1 of 7

The first nickelate evidence was filamentary

Method and conditions

The original La₃Ni₂O₇ result was explicitly reported as “signatures”: resistance and mutual-inductance susceptibility supported superconductivity, but later work found low or filamentary superconducting fractions in imperfect samples. Pressure creates an Fmmm phase with strong Ni d(x²−y²) and d(z²)-O 2p mixing.

The first nickelate evidence was filamentary

The original La₃Ni₂O₇ result was explicitly reported as “signatures”: resistance and mutual-inductance susceptibility supported superconductivity, but later work found low or filamentary superconducting fractions in imperfect samples. Pressure creates an Fmmm phase with strong Ni d(x²−y²) and d(z²)-O 2p mixing.

Nature
Disorder separates bulk from filaments

In La₂PrNi₂O₇, the orthorhombic-to-tetragonal transition occurs near 11 GPa; reducing intergrowths and apical-oxygen disorder was central to obtaining bulk rather than filamentary superconductivity.

Nature
A 45 K onset is not zero resistance

The ambient nickelate-film result depends on roughly 2% coherent in-plane compressive epitaxial strain. Its 45 K onset is not a 45 K zero-resistance or Meissner temperature: those occur near 9 K and 8 K respectively.

Nature
Film defects complicate attribution

A separate La₃Ni₂O₇ film study found onsets of 26-42 K but zero resistance only around 2 K, with stacking faults, grain boundaries, oxygen stoichiometry and secondary Ruddlesden-Popper phases complicating attribution.

Nature
Onset, zero resistance and Meissner differ

The 96 K La₂SmNi₂O₇−δ figure is an onset under 26.8 GPa. The strongest combined bulk evidence was obtained under slightly different conditions: onset 92 K, zero resistance 73 K at 21.6 GPa, and Meissner response near 60 K at 20.6 GPa.

Nature
Hydride samples contain mixed phases

Spatial X-ray mapping of (La,Y)H₁₀ resolved coexisting cubic and hexagonal micron-scale domains-approximately 42% cubic and 58% hexagonal at 153 GPa-showing why phase identity, strain and pressure gradients complicate hydride critical-temperature assignments.

Nature Communications
The 274 K anomaly is not a verified Tc

The La-Sc hydride paper’s reproducible superconducting-diode and SQUID-like effects occur at 233 K; its 274 K resistance anomaly was only tentatively attributed to a separate lower hydride phase and is not a verified critical temperature.
