New Paper in RSC Advances – Biotemplated Superconductors
Our newest paper has just been published in RSC Advances:
“Morphological control of cuprate superconductors using sea sponges as templates.”
In this study, we explored a greener approach to superconductor synthesis by using natural sea sponges as a sustainable biotemplate. Their intrinsic 3D architecture porous YBCO and BSCCO superconductors.
This work was a collaborative effort with my brilliant friend and co-author Jula Carlotta Schroeder, and with the guidance of my supervisors Simon Hall, Stephen Eichhorn, and Avinash Patil.
