BCS theory...? (1 Viewer)

Okay so BCS theory explains how superconductors maintain 0 resistance below critical temperature...
Can someone explain how it explains it? I dont get it...

I think this post explains it pretty well, not sure if it is detailed enough for the HSC though.

hope this can help

Okay my question now is how can the cooper pair go through the structure uninterrupted

lol, I cringe when i see HSC write "due to quantum physics..."

"Due to quantum physics/phenomenon/mechanics"

That diagram just screwed me over...
Let me try to xplain:
So BCS theory explains why a type 1 superconductor has 0 resistance below its critical temperature. As electrons pass through the structure the negative charges distort the structure causing the electron to release a positive area in the area behind it (lol.) This forms cooper pairs as the second electron is attracted to the positive area behind the electron which is technically then attached to the electron. The cooper pair travels through th lattice structure with 0 resistance as it doesn't bump into any other electrons...

Yeah, that is basically it.

Release? It's more like "produce/create"

where did you get the pictures from? The link is old and won't let me through =l Thanks =)
