The recent discovery of high-temperature superconductivity has
resulted in a remarkable growth in the amount of research and the
number of researchers working in this exciting field.
Superconductivity is not a new phenomenon: in 1991 it will be 80
years old. Even though it was the newer discoveries which motivated
us to write this book, the book itself is mainly a description of
the fundamentals of the phenomenon. The book is written for a very
broad audience, including students, engin eers, teachers,
scientists, and others who are interested in learning about this
exciting frontier of science. We have focused on the qualitative
aspects, so that the reader can develop a basic understanding of
the fundamental physics without getting bogged down in the details.
Because of this approach, our list of refer ences is not
comprehensive, and it is supplemented with a summary of additional
reading consisting of monographs and selected review articles. (The
articles we have referenced were either not reflected in the review
articles on monographs or were milestones in the development of the
field. ) In addition, some of the sections which can be skipped
during the first reading have been marked with asterisks (*). Until
recently, superconductivity was considered to belong to the field
of low-temperature physics. This field was born, simultaneously
with quantum physics, at the beginning of this century. Initially
these two contemporaneous fields developed independently, but they
soon became strongly coupled."
