Lanthanum barium copper oxide
Lanthanum barium copper oxide, or LBCO, was discovered in 1986 and was the first high temperature superconductor.[1] Johannes Georg Bednorz and K. Alex Müller shared the 1987 Nobel Prize in physics for its discovery.[2]
The unit cell of the layered perovskite structure of LBCO. Copper ions are red, lanthanum (barium) ions are blue, and oxygen ions are green. | |
