# High-Temperature Superconductivity

Materials conducting electricity with zero resistance above liquid nitrogen temperatures
- Technology Readiness Level: 6/9
- Impact: 5/5
- Investment: 5/5
High-temperature superconductors (HTS) exhibit zero electrical resistance above liquid nitrogen temperature. Applications include cryogenic receiver front-end (CRFE) filters for base stations; prototypes in dry ice; experiments for room temperature. Vision: no-loss conductors, magnetic levitation, lossless storage, electric cars. Research continues into new materials, higher critical temperatures, and scalable manufacturing.
