In this article, we describe the phenomenology of the superconducting state in condensed matter. We start introducing the main properties and experimental signatures of conventional superconductivity in elemental metals and metallic alloys. Next, we focus on unconventional high temperature superconductivity in copper oxides and on the highly complex electronic phase diagram of these materials. Finally, we review the appearance of high temperature superconductivity in other classes of oxides such as bismuthates and nickelates.

Abstract

In this article, we describe the phenomenology of the superconducting state in condensed matter. We start introducing the main properties and experimental signatures of conventional superconductivity in elemental metals and metallic alloys. Next, we focus on unconventional high temperature superconductivity in copper oxides and on the highly complex electronic phase diagram of these materials. Finally, we review the appearance of high temperature superconductivity in other classes of oxides such as bismuthates and nickelates.
