Scotch Tape Holds Together Novel 80 K "High Temperature" Superconductor

halightw writes: Scotch tape really can fix anything according to a new study where it was used to induce super conductivity by taping two pieces of material together. A "proximity effect" occurs when a superconducting material is able to induce superconducting behavior in a second material — a semiconductor that does not typically enjoy superconductivity.
