Superconductivity in Pressure Quenched Cadmium Sulfide at 77 K

Abstract

Observations of magnetic field induced collapse of Meissner sized diamagnetism with a coincident decrease in electrical conductivity in pressure quenched CdS material at 77 K are reported. These results are consistent with the existence of superconducting regions in the specimens at this temperature.
